Resumen del Editor

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.

book was good but it lies

great book but you have to figure out what's a lie.and what's truth. reptiles thing is all fake

Amazing

Best book EVER! Time to wake up to the Truth that has been locked up from the masses.

Curious?

Long and a bit difficult to follow - maybe a second listen will help me make sense of these ideas.

History of the world through secret societies

one of the strangest books i have ever read, but couldn't stop listening to. If you are curious about what Secret Societies believe and have pushed down through the ages you will probably enjoy it. it is not light in its material however.

Great book!

This is a great book about secret societies and alchemy. I do not recommend for kids tho!

Get your tin foil hat

I am a credulous skeptic. That is, I am skeptical about most conspiracy theories but I am prepared to believe them if the evidence is presented in a reasonably convincing way.

This book was highly recommended by a friend who is typically reasonable. Sadly, though there were a few good points, the book failed to persuade.

Those whom searched for greater understanding

Loaded with tons of interesting history about secret societies and those whom searched for enlightenment. For me, all of the new information was overwhelming and I had to relisten to many parts. However, it was worth the work and I did enjoy this book.

Very good conclusion

I really enjoyed this book, listening the story of the world from a different perspective. Nontheless, there are too many comments about everything is because of the stars from 7,000 years before. The conclusion of the book was very good and at the end, I was very happy.

Very interesting book!!

a very informative and great read with tons of interest in viewpoints. I must have for true knowledge Seekers.
