2012: Science & Prophecy of the Ancient Maya by Mark Van Stone, Ph.D, G.F. Book Summary

Explore the world of the Maya. Understand the predictions of the end of their world—and ours—for the year 2012.

Examine the cultural clues they left in their art and writings, as your expert guide, Mayanist Dr. Mark Van Stone, accompanied by 14 other learned scholars, show you interactive and 3-D versions of ancient hieroglyphs, masks, monuments, vases, plates and books, then tell what they meant to the Maya, and what they should mean to us.

Rich details come to life in this expedition to another place and time. Meet the rulers, artisans and astronomers of the Maya and their neighboring cultures. Get a glimpse of the gods at the center of the many Creation stories celebrated by the Maya. See how they believed it all began, how they lived (with war, natural disasters, and plagues), and how they viewed the ending of the Creations.

Understand reading, writing and arithmetic as the Maya understood, and calculate time by their calendar and the movements of the sun. Begin to read the hieroglyphs that the author, and the many scholars who speak throughout the video components of this interactive book, probe and analyze to see the world through the eyes of the Maya.

Well Done!. This is a great book for anyone interested in the whole 2012 Mayan prophesies. Very interactive and great for those of us that learn better by participating vs. just reading straight text. You won't be disappointed.

Ms. This is an amazing experience! This is the future.. This will bring Mayan history alive for people in a way that no ordinary book could ever do.I have never seen such an interactive iBook before and this really blew my mind. I highly recommend it.

Perfect for those planning a trip to Mexico. This has all the information you need to explain to people everything we actually know about Mayan astronomy. You can use your iPad to demonstrate science and archaeological discoveries to other people interested in 2012. Wonderful stuff!

Awesome Book!!!. This book has so much to teach us still. Even after 2012 came and went, I can't help but wonder if we are off on our calendars by a few years because of leap year or the way we manage time. Leap years, leap seconds, etc. This book is interactive. More than I have seen in any other book on iTunes!!! It's a must have!!!

Congrats to the author. The interactive quality of this book brings the long gone maya into the 21st century in amazing ways. It demystifies so many facts about the brilliant Maya and their way of life.

AWESOME!. This book blew me away! It has to be the most interactive ibook I have every seen. There is so much packed into this ibook! This is a great book plain and simple! I enjoy the interactive part. My kids love it too. There is so much to learn about!
