Title: Much to say about nothing
Review: I saw this book at the bookstore and bought it without reading the online reviews. It had a good inviting title but it never delivered.With a title of "Breaking Maya the code" you will think you will learn about the "Maya code".The author however goes over the history and steps (mainly misteps as mentions it over and over) taken on "breaking the code".I particulary dislike the way the calls out names & ridicules many anthropologyst and other Mayan researchers without a particular explanation to the reader on why. Most of them dead of course so they can not complain right.The author mostly complains about the mistakes and biases of the researchers and never really gets to the code itself. In summary he is very critical of everyone that had to do with the Maya.I will rate this book just as he rates a book by B.M. Norman (page 96); "The book is on the whole worthless,..." except for the pictures and photos in the middle.You will not learn any Maya code with this book.
