The countdown has begun--and there's nothing you can do to stop it. In this irresistibly entertaining book, Lawrence Joseph will make you think twice about your retirement plans as he explains why the year 2012 will likely be more tumultuous, catastrophic, and quite possibly revelatory than any other year in human history. Is it a coincidence that the burgeoning war between Christianity and Islam seems hell-bent for Armageddon? Or that numerous other religions, philosophies, and cultural traditions are signaling that the end is near, with 2012 emerging as the consensus target date? A new era is about to be born, with all the pain and blood and joy and release that birth naturally entails. View: Secular.

Nail-biters beware because:

• We're a million years overdue for a mass extinction on the scale of the one that wiped out the dinosaurs 60 million years ago.
• The Earth's magnetic field--which shields us from harmful radiation--is developing a mysterious crack.
• Our solar system is entering an energetically hostile part of the galaxy.
• The supervolcano under Yellowstone National Park is getting ready to blow, and if it does, we can look forward to nuclear winter and near-total annihilation.
• The next peak in the sunspot cycle (due in 2012) may well set records for the number and intensity of solar storms pummeling the Earth with radiation and igniting natural calamities such as earthquakes and Katrina-sized hurricanes.
• The Maya, the world's greatest timekeepers, predict it's all going to stop in 2012.
