Synopsis

Hurricanes? Child's Play. Tornadoes and Earthquakes? Tinker Toys. We're talking about the end of life on earth as we know it: 1000 foot tsunamis; volcanic eruptions and Texas-sized asteroids that will have the capacity of dwarfing any man-made nuclear winters; devastating plagues that make Ebola look like the common cold and could wipe out the world's population in a matter of months, or even weeks; global warming that will make Omaha, Nebraska choice beachfront property. DOOMSDAY: End-of-the-World Scenarios, using theories of modern volcanologists and astro-physicists, will be a book that examines a dozen life-ending catastrophes that could smother Mother Earth in our lifetimes--and it's not a matter of if these end-of-the-world scenarios occur, but when.
