The scheduled release date is May 4. The back cover will have blurbs from Sting (www.sting.com) and Graham Hancock (www.grahamhancock.com):
"Daniel Pinchbeck's 2012: The Return of Quetzalcoatl is a dazzling kaleidoscopic journey through the quixotic hinterlands of consciousness, crop circles, and ancient prophecy, as well as an intriguing and deeply personal odyssey of transformation. 2012 presents a compelling and complex teleological argument, weaving together the twilit realms of the human imagination and the harsh realities of accelerated global catastrophe. Its conclusions are surprisingly robust, original, and thankfully optimistic."
- Sting
"A daring and intriguing, sometimes deeply disturbing, very well researched and extremely readable book that puts an entirely new slant on 2012. From quantum physics to aliens, from crop circles to reincarnation, from shamanic hallucinogens to Rudolf Steiner, from the Amazon jungle to Stonehenge, from fragments of jaundiced autobiography to the ending of worlds, Pinchbeck takes us on a mind-bending, paradigm-rattling ride."
- Graham Hancock
Methinks the publication of this book and the release of Mel Gibson's "Apocalypto" will help the 2012 meme to "tip" this summer. Daniel is walking proof of the link between entheogens and increasing novelty. Could it be a coincidence that the 2006 Burning Man theme is "The Future"?
"The author is not some hippy-dippy hedonist staggering down the road of excess but rather a skeptical philosopher of consciousness seeking the enlightened path." - Troy Patterson, Entertainment Weekly
Daniel's brand of skepticism is something altogether different from that of Robert Carroll (www.skepdic.com), James Randi (www.randi.org), or CSICOP (www.csicop.org)
