Great Book
Anyone wanting to know the truth of this date should buy this book.
This book consists of three main parts: Why the Maya chose 2012, a review of peers and their books on the Maya, and introspection on what this date could and could not mean. It is technical in the beginning. Explaining why the Maya chose to end their calendar on 12.21.12 is a complex topic. The rest is great. Peers are reviewed and it ends brilliantly.
I have read many books on this date, John Major Jenkins seems to be one of very few people out there not selling fear or a product AND providing you with valid verifyable information. Isn't that what books are supposed to do?3 out of 3 people found this review helpful.

2012 and you.
I consider this book a good overall exposition of the 2012 phenomena that have recently caught the attention of the media (especially after the big Hollywood movie). But, most of the facts stated in the book can be found on a quick "Google" search. I don't recommend spending 20 dollars if all what you are looking for is a general knowledge of what 2012 is. If you are looking to an interpretation of what 2012 could means, then I think you would enjoy what the author have to say (apologetically at times).

It will put you to sleep until 2012
while I understand that this book was to educate on the mayan calendar, It was extremely DRY in its content. Dry facts, scientific results, and the like.
consider this a book to be used in universities for an assignement / paper and not casual reading.0 out of 1 people found this review helpful.
