Designed and written in the vein of the book "The Da Vinci Code Secrets," this guide provides answers to the questions raised by Dan Brown's other popular novel "Angels & Demons." "The Illuminati Secrets" takes us to Baroque Rome, into the depths of the Vatican, into the hermetically sealed papal apartments, where secret religious sects change the fates of the world, where the greatest creator of the era, Bernini, creates the famous statues and buildings with their secret symbols. As in the previous book edited by Dan Burstein, prominent historians, theologians, philosophers, scientists, archaeologists, art theorists, linguists, occultists, and writers discuss and analyze Dan Brown's novel and the era in which it is set, separating truth from fiction and creating a stimulating, captivating, and easy-to-read book.
