scarcly accurate
12 Mar 2001
Format:Hardcover
If the researcher of this book had any matter about the 'secret society', he would know that for one: Opus Dei is not an order (to start with). The inaccurate ability to distort what Mr. Walsh considers to be his inside view shows that he also has an disregard for the Catholic Church aswell and therefore from the outset, it is really not worthy of being the 'whole truth' if his personal inhibitions are going to get in the way. Truely, you would not call this objective research. I am sorry but I think this book needs to be redone in an ordered light to what really is Opus Dei (a light for those who want to search for God in their ordinary day).

Biased book
24 Jan 2002
Format:Hardcover
The book is unfortunately highly biased and riddled with inaccuracies. Messori's book, on the other hand, provides a balanced and accurate representation of Opus Dei.

OPUS DEI IS UNMASKED
20 Oct 2000
Format:Hardcover
WALSH HAS DONE HIS HOMEWORK! AN EXCELLENT BOOK FOR THOSE INTERESTED IN POLITICS, CONSPIRACIES, OR RELIGIOUS ISSUES. WALSH IS ABLE TO GO DEEP INTO THIS WORLD OF OPUS DEI AND GIVE US A HISTORY OF THIS ORDER AND REASONS WHY IT HAS BECOME ONE OF THE MOST CONTROVERSIAL ORDERS IN THE CATHOLIC CHURCH SINCE THE JESUITS. VERY INFORMATIVE AND BACKED BY OTHER BOOKS, NEWSPAPER ARTICLES, AND INTERVIEWS, AND PERSONAL TESTIMONY. WALSH REVEALS SECRETS OF THE ORDER, ESPECIALLY ITS ROLE IN POLITICS AROUND THE WORLD; THE READER WILL NOT WANT TO PUT THE BOOK DOWN. AN EXCELLENT PLACE TO BEGIN THE SEARCH FOR THE HIDDEN TRUTH OF OPUS DEI. THE BOOK IS MORE INFORMATIVE THAN BIAS AND CRITICAL, BUT MOST IMPORTANT IS THAT THE READER IS LEFT WANTING MORE!
