Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the history and complexities of the calendar, exploring the reasons behind its seemingly illogical structure. The author takes readers on a journey through time, tracing the evolution of our current calendar system from its roots in ancient Egypt and Rome. We learn how the influence of the moon, the need for agricultural accuracy, and the rise of Christianity have shaped the calendar we use today. Throughout this historical exploration, the author highlights the shortcomings of the current system, arguing that its inconsistencies create numerous inconveniences in our daily lives. The author proposes a radical solution: a rational calendar with months of equal length, ending on a consistent day of the week.
