The Einstein Connection: Ancient Myths & Scientific Theories of an Approaching Global Cataclysm

We know that previous global cataclysms and floods were documented in ancient mythology from around the world, and many of these myths have predicted that it will happen again. And, now there is some scientific evidence to support this idea. It was Albert Einstein who was one of the first scientists to be convinced that the Earth had indeed been plagued by a reoccurring global cataclysm, and he collaborated with scientists studying this phenomenon. As incredible as it sounds, he also believed that such an event or a very similar one was responsible for periodic advances in human evolution, and he corresponded with a scientific theorist on this topic as well. Every few years it seems that someone is predicting "the end of the world," and they often cite ancient myths to support these predictions. Most of the books on this subject are either written by true believers, or by closed-minded skeptics, but what is the real truth? Is there any scientific evidence to back up these theories of an approaching global cataclysm? This book offers an objective, open-minded skeptic's scientific analysis of the odds of a global cataclysm occurring in our lifetime. It presents a complete index of all of the apocalyptic myths and prophecies form around the world, and the scientific theories to explain them. It contains the writings of Albert Einstein, Plato, Edgar Cayce, the Bible, the ancient Mayan books of the Popol Vuh and Chilam Balam, and many others. Most importantly, it presents the most recent scientific evidence both in support of and contradicting these apocalyptic theories, with some surprising conclusions. This is an absolutely fascinating investigation into one of the greatest mysteries of modern science, and the brilliant scientists who have studied it. The book is extremely well researched with over 200 references and a bibliography with over 90 sources, and yet it reads like a spell-binding mystery. Are we headed for another global catastrophe? Look at the evidence, then you decide.
