The year 2012, which, according to the Mayan calendar, will be a year of global upheaval, is rapidly approaching-and interest in the Maya is at an all-time high. Gerald Benedict, who issued a timely warning in The Mayan Prophecies for 2012 , now takes a wider look at the Mayan worldview and its relevance for today. Looking beyond doomsday scenarios, he finds a positive message for the 21st century in Mayan concepts of synchronicity, diversity, and These ancient thinkers teach us to understand and embrace our place in the universe as individuals and as members of a community, so that we can fulfill our true potential.

A wonderful snap shop of what the end of the world is all about. Gives details in easy to understand terms about who the Maya were and what their calender system was all about. A wonderful little read.
