The final countdown?
On December 21, 2012, the Mayan calendar will complete its thirteenth cycle. According to the Mayan belief system, the world will end. And if you don’t believe the Mayans, you can check in with The Bible Code, The Nostradamus Code, or The Orion Prophecy, all of which predict planet-wide doom. Then again, maybe the year 2012 is just a new opportunity. Could 2012 bring us good things instead of bad? This book gives readers a look at what the Mayan prophecy is all about, what it means to them, and much more.

Review:
5.0 out of 5 stars Finally, a realistic view of 2012, December 22, 2008
This review is from: The Complete Idiot's Guide to 2012 (Paperback)
Having worked in the FBI for over 30 years I run sort of skeptical on prophecies of the future. Yet, I found this just the right read for all the fuss over 2012. It is simple, understandable yet erudite. The Andrews, from what I have read and gather from their background, are very knowledgeable in what they do - and it shows! The book is filled with
information and warnings - warnings as to where one can go off the edge.
Their feet are certainly on the ground as they offer possibilities in the future based on traditions of the past. What more can one ask? Whether you are a "believer" or not does not matter. Rest assured, even if you only seek information about 2012 as a social obligation, as it will be on many lips, this is the book to get what you need to know. And, if you
believe there may be something to it, and I do, there are some good tips as to what to do. So, for we fellow "Idiot's" this book is quite erudite, simple and uncomplicated. I recommend it highly.
