Having worked on projects around the world, strengthening and restoring historically significant structures from Windsor Castle to the parliament buildings in Canada, Peter James brings insight to the structural engineering of ancient Egypt. After fourteen years working on the historic buildings and temples of Egypt, and most recently the worlds oldest pyramid, he now presents some of the more common theories surrounding the collapsing pyramid along with new and innovative projections on the construction of the pyramids and the restoration of some of Cairos most monumental structures from the brink of ruin. The decoding of historic construction from a builders perspective is examined and explained at times against many existing theories and the book provides a new outlook on longheld assumptions, to embrace modern theories in a bid to preserve the past.
