I found it riveting to read. It is definitely a page-turner which keeps you hooked until the very end. The ...

Mr. Braden understands this and provides an outline for ...
  
  











  



  
The World Is Flat [Updated and Expanded]: A Brief History of the Twenty-first Century1168 reviews
Thomas L. Friedman

Farrar, Straus and Giroux, 2006

Approachable for all readers, essential for understanding our flat world. This book should be on everyones "must read" list

+ Friedman is a True Patriot!

I found the first section (263 pages) difficult to plow through - I come from a software / engineering background and found the techie speak in the first section dry. Understandably this book was written for a broad audience, and this section was a prerequisite for the remainder of the book as it ...

The Messianic Legacy41 reviews
Michael Baigent

Dell, 1989

An Interesting Sequel

+ Tres historias

I purchased this book with some trepidation, why? Well I wondered whether the authors really needed to write this book, particularly as they had just republished The Holy Blood and The Holy Grail, or were they simply riding the crest of the wave of publicity surrounding the court case brought by ...
  
  











  



  
The Templar Revelation: Secret Guardians of the True Identity of Christ171 reviews
Lynn Picknett, Clive Prince

Touchstone, 1998

Excellent Research

+ Doesn't attempt to "sensationalize" a preconceived contrary position
+ Entertaining & informative

I recently re-read this book, after seeing the authors sitting in Tom Hank's bus in the Da Vinci Code movie. It really is a superb piece of historical investigation. Shame the public didn't catch on to this one instead of Dan Brown's rip off. The key point of the book is that the real indentity of ...

Bruce Goldberg

Ballantine Books, 1988

Wonderful

+ Pretty damned good for its time
+ My first and favorite past life book to date

I adore this book. It was so fascinating and so enlightening I was truly impressed. If you ever wondered if you had a past life or wondered why you do some of the things you do now ... maybe it's the secrets lie closer than you realize.

I try very hard to read 12 books each year, and there are so many to choose from that narrowing down my annual list is difficult. Elaine Pagels Book "Beyond Belief" was released in 2003, but did not get onto my own book reading to-do list for 3 years, by which time it was surprisingly gone from ...
