Nostradamus, history’s greatest prophet, is credited with predicting some of the world’s most shocking events hundreds of years before they took place. Now, HISTORY® brings to life Nostradamus’ words and the cryptic illustrations contained within the recently discovered book Prophecy of the Roman Popes, which had been secretly hidden in Rome for 400 years, to reveal new details about his most famed predictions. With state-of-the-art animation, dramatic reenactments and forensic analysis, The Lost Book of Nostradamus explores both Nostradamus’ singular life and the journey of this enigmatic book. Nostradamus 2012 continues the story, with a series of seven strange drawings that have been interpreted to point to an apocalyptic event – a massive cosmic collision, a global environmental disaster, an Armageddon-like religious showdown, or a more subtle transformation – a prophecy shared by many cultures, including most famously, the ancient Maya of South America. The Nostradamus Effect investigates and deconstructs these mysteriously similar doomsday warnings from the Hopi Indians, the Hindus, the Bible and other ancient texts, as well as from Nostradamus, to identify remarkable correlations between them and the crises of our contemporary world
