Product Description

Book Description
Ever since mankind first began to count, people have clocked days, moons and years, tried to make sense of them in terms of each other, and formed calendars to order their lives. In an amazing leap, the ancient Maya managed to synchronize all the visible planets too.

In this tiny recycled guide to ancient calendars, Geoff Stray explains the difference between lunar and solar calendars, the importance precession, and why the Maya thought the current era would end in December 2012. --This text refers to the Paperback edition.

5.0 out of 5 stars Mayan Calendrical Expert Scores Full Marks Again, 26 Nov 2007
By Angela Haward (Buckinghamshire, England) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Geoff Stray is an acknowledged expert on the Mayan Calendar and all matters pertaining to 2012. In this pocket-sized volume - which I shall be buying as a stocking filler this year - Geoff covers a different ancient calendar on each page with detailed illustrations to clarify his points. It is easy to read and beautifully produced in brown and cream monochrome. There are very few other people in the world who have researched this subject as deeply as Geoff - and I can highly recommend both this book and his magnum opus, 'Beyond 2012'.
