Informative, and iconoclastic contribution to Egyptology Feb 08, 2001
By Midwest Book Review
Now in an updated and expanded second edition, Moustafa Gadalla's Pyramid Handbook is a unique, informative, and iconoclastic contribution to Egyptology with its focus on the pyramids of antiquity. Featured are the locations and dimensions of the interiors and exteriors of the pyramids; varied theories on the construction, purpose, and function of the pyramids; the sacred geometry that was incorporated into the design of the pyramids; and a great deal more. Pyramid Handbook is fresh, original, thorough, scholarly, completely accessible to the non-specialist general reader, and enhanced with useful illustrations of the sites and interiors of the Egyptian masonry pyramids. If you have an interest in Egyptology, the Pyramids, and iconoclastic archaeological studies, read Moustafa Gadalla's Pyramid Handbook.

Everything in one easy book Aug 14, 2000
This book contains a complete synopsis about the pyramids. Finally, there is a book that gives all the information about the pyramids, their locations, dimensions, profiles, why they were built, and how. The sacred geometry of the pyramids and pyramid power are very interesting. Well researched, and well written.

All the guide you need Aug 13, 2000
From having traveled to Egypt myself, I can tell you that this is one of the best books on the pyramids I've ever read. If only I had this when I was there, I could have been so much more fullfilled. I was especially interested in the writtings on sacred geometry. I can't wait for for the next time I get a chance to go to Egypt and visit the pyramids armed with Gadalla's book. This is a must own for anyone traveling to Egypt or has ever wanted to know the truth about antient Egypt and the pyramids.
Just the facts, please. Mar 24, 2011
By R. J. McCabe
In contrast to books like "The Giza Power Plant" by Christopher Dunn - highly recommended - which theorize about the purpose of the pyramids and their component parts, this brief volume offers a well-written account of each of the major pyramids of Egypt. Conveying "only the facts" of the location, design, & construction of each, this book provides a useful frame of reference regarding the pyramids.
One VERY INTERESTING thing claimed in the book is that the blocks for the pyramids were "poured in place" rather than quarried. IMO, this may be reasonable to assume. However, it is NOT a known fact as the author likes to claim his book only portrays.
All in all, an informative book. Highly recommended.
