Acerca de esta escucha

They say that history is written by the victors. But what if history - or what we have come to know as history - has all along been written by the wrong people? What if everything we've been told is only part of the story? What if it's the wrong part?

In this groundbreaking new work, Mark Booth embarks on an enthralling intellectual tour of our world's secret histories. Starting from a dangerous premise - that everything we've been taught about our world's past is corrupted, and that the stories put forward by the various cults and mystery schools throughout history are true - Booth produces nothing short of an alternate history of the past 3,000 years.

History is more than a list of things that have happened; it's a measure of consciousness and experience. And in The Secret History of the World, Booth's take on history is relentless, charging through time and space and thought in interdisciplinary fashion. Embracing cognitive science, religion, psychology, historiography, and philosophy, he draws a new timeline, and a huge swath of our cultural heritage that has long been hidden is restored. From Greek and Egyptian mythology to Jewish folklore, from Christian cults to Freemasons, from Charlemagne to Don Quixote, from George Washington to Hitler - Booth shows without a doubt that history as we know it needs a revolutionary rethink, and he has 3,000 years of hidden wisdom to back it up.

Lo que los oyentes dicen sobre The Secret History of the World

Con calificación alta para:

The Book Presents An Unconventional Narrative That Explores Esoteric History, Ancient Mysteries, And The Influence Of Secret Societies Through The Ages. While Offering Intriguing Story Ideas, Fascinating Historical References, And Thought-provoking Perspectives, The Narrative Often Lacks Substantiation And Coherence. Many Readers Found The Storytelling Captivating Yet Struggled With The Author's Unsubstantiated Claims, Disjointed Flow, Lack Of Evidence, Outlandish Assertions, And Unconvincing Arguments Regarding Alternative Worldviews And Occult Knowledge.

Esoteric research compilation

What did you like best about The Secret History of the World? What did you like least?

The narrator did a good job in relaying the author's views on esoteric research about esoteric topics.

What was the most interesting aspect of this story? The least interesting?

Most: Saturn-Day, Sun-Day, Moon-Day explainations was cool. Author forgot Tuesday, Wednesday, Thors-Day and Friday though, so an incomplete picture.
Least: This was not a history of the world - it was a history of people having deep thoughts and the author's compilation of parts that seemed to somewhat mesh.

Which character – as performed by John Lee – was your favorite?

Only one character reading about esoteric researchers esoteric research.

Could you see The Secret History of the World being made into a movie or a TV series? Who should the stars be?

Hell no. This would at best be a Dan Brown sub-sub-plot feeder.

Any additional comments?

I almost wonder how many times "esoteric" was used. Yeah, we get it, it's small populations' research but move ON!

Boom! Mind Blown...

I feel I'm pretty well read in this category but I learned a lot and finally UNDERSTOOD a lot. I have had the book for a few years and never got around to reading it, in my defense, I have a slight book addiction, I have thousands so it's difficult. I am inspired to pick it up and go cover to cover! Then, I'll re-listen to the audiobook and my bookmarks and have an education that you just don't get in university! READ IT! LISTEN!

Fascinating, entertaining, mind altering

What did you love best about The Secret History of the World?

The author's knowledge and clarity, the mind bending, intuitively true connections he makes, the window-opening effect on the mind and the spectacular narration.

What other book might you compare The Secret History of the World to and why?

It's unique in my experience.

Have you listened to any of John Lee’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

Yes. Always wonderful. In this one, above and beyond: it's better than reading it yourself. Pure pleasure.

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

Too many to count.

Any additional comments?

The quality of the thinking and writing is so clearly outstanding that, even though many of the assertions are way out there, you have to consider that they might be true. A seriously paradigm changing book. An amazing piece of work.

Remarkable

To be listened to many times over. The reader is as good as it gets. I'll be looking up other books read by him just for the delivery he gives.

open mindedness needed for this one

good book with a lot of historic references very informational but one has to approach it would an open mind open to the possibilities of the unnatural. as it is starts digging into the esoteric world, the reader or listener will have to use his or hers imagination

Completing the Circle of One Eternal Round

This book touched on so many things that lined the road as I have journeyed from orthodoxy to atheism and back to a path of seeking. No placebos please. I insist on knowing.

The biggest bowl of tripe ever

For too many reasons for me to take the time to list, this book is absolute rubbish.
