This book does a good job at helping a person who has no clue to Bible prophecy, get an overall understanding of what pastors and churches are saying when it comes to the end times. What is unique about this book is that it takes a balanced approach. As the material is presented, there isn't any calls for running to the hills but at the same time, Christians aren't told to bury their heads in the sand and be oblivious as to what's going on in the world around us.
