Worst
Predictions
excavates the strata of
history
to expose the credulity and absurdity of humanity'
s
prophetic utterances. Every aspect of human life—religion, politics, science, economy, culture, and war—has provided material for the most far-fetched and inaccurate of
predictions
. This beautifully illustrated, full-color volume contains photographs and maps that bring each chapter to life, depicting the
people
and places responsible for some of the most infamous prophecies in human
history
. "--From publisher.
