Driven by a clear and compelling argument, this engaging book traces apocalyptic thinking in two civilizations--Western and Maya. Looking both backward and forward, Matthew Restall and Amara Solari build on their previous study, 2012 and the End of the World, to explore the persistence of our civilization's end-of-times anxiety and anticipation.

Both teach at the Pennsylvania State University, where Restall is a Sparks Professor in history and anthropology, and Solari is professor of art history and anthropology.
