In this new edition of Questioning the Millennium, best-selling author Stephen Jay Gould applies his wit and erudition to one of today's most pressing subjects: the significance of the millennium. In 1950 at age eight, prompted by an issue of Life magazine marking the century's midpoint, Stephen Jay Gould started thinking about the approaching turn of the millennium. In this beautiful inquiry into time and its milestones, he shares his interest and insights with his readers. Refreshingly reasoned and absorbing, the book asks and answers the three major questions that define the approaching calendrical event. First, what exactly is this concept of a millennium and how has its meaning shifted? How did the name for a future thousand-year reign of Jesus Christ on earth get transferred to the passage of a secular period of a thousand years in current human history? When does the new millennium really begin: January 1, 2000, or January 1, 2001? (Although seemingly trivial, the debate over this issue tells an intriguing story about the cultural history of the twentieth century.) And why must our calendars be so complex, leading to our search for arbitrary regularity, including a fascination with millennia? This revised edition begins with a new and extensive preface on a key subject not treated in the original version. As always, Gould brings into his essays a wide range of compelling historical and scientific fact, including a brief history of millennial fevers, calendrical traditions, and idiosyncrasies from around the world; the story of a sixth-century monk whose errors in chronology plague us even today; and the heroism of a young autistic man who has developed the extraordinary ability to calculate dates deep into the past and the future. Ranging over a wide terrain of phenomena--from the arbitrary regularities of human calendars to the unpredictability of nature, from the vagaries of pop culture to the birth of Christ--Stephen Jay Gould holds up the mirror to our millennial passions to reveal our foibles, absurdities, and uniqueness--in other words, our humanity.

It's not too early to make plans for New Years Eve 1999. The new millennium will be here sooner than you think, so now's the time to book hotel reservations and dinner plans. "The Millennium Guide" is the definitive companion to celebrations around the world including events and activities taking place in 30 countries. Here's where to be among the first to see the year 2000 (Figi and Tonga); here's where to be the last to see the year 2000 (Western Samoa and the Cook Islands). "The Millennium Guide" also contains other interesting facts, such as that 400 million bottles of champagne will be consumed that night and that Tonga's International Date Line Hotel has been fully-booked for over a decade. Richard Knight has fully investigated the plans of every country around the world and listed what's going on in every major continent, including the U.S., Canada, Europe, the Caribbean, Australia and more. Did you know the Fijians will light up the 180 meridian International Date Line so that it will be visible from space or that the Chinese plan to illuminate the Great Wall of China with laser light launched from orbiting satellites? There are also cruise suggestions and useful general information for the millennium traveler. So, when you party like it's 1999, remember to make a reservation first.
