Jonathan Black's "The Secret History of the World" is the sort of thing I invariably grab as a result when I do - and regret soon afterwards as I'm forced to read it or watch the in-flight Disney movie. As "history" goes, the book isn't. As a one-sided collection of conspiracy rubbish and pseudo science, that the author appears to believe all of, it gets full marks. For instance, did you know that that Roscicrucian "philosophy" when applied to human internal organs when drawn by someone called Rudolf Steiner looks a little little like Roscicrucian "philosophy" when applied to how Roscicrucians believe the outlay of the planets to look? Now imagine this kind of thing for over five hundred pages and you begin to understand why Graham Hancock likes this book and anyone with a real education (and, lacking the kind of 'insight' the 'mother godess' gives), wont. Imagine this kind of thing being illustrated by the kinds of perception tests rolled out in modern corporate training ('do you see the old or the young woman'?), and imagine trying not to laugh when you learn that Napoleon and Alexander the Great came undone when the happy-benign entities living inside them decided to move out. Do yourself a favour, instead pick up a book with more depth and meaning. Any phone directory is probably a better read. |
