Eclectic and beguiling observations by bestselling author Tahir Shah, Three Essays considers three quite different subjects in ways they have never been considered before.The first piece looks at cannibalism, noting how prevalent it has been throughout human history. Only frowned upon in relatively recent times, Shah makes the point that cannibalism was never regarded as shocking.The second essay considers the Kumbh Mela - an Indian cultural extravaganza and the greatest human gathering of all time.The third text looks at the way Arab Science from the so-called 'Golden Age' of Islam shapes the world in which we live - making everything from mobile phones to medical transfusions possible.
