I hope the CIA Dissected The Brain of Jones
Revisado: 10-08-17
Outstanding book, throughly researched - yet the outstanding writing style coupled with the great narration made the this audio book hard to stop listening to. I found myself sitting in my parked car at work, home, Walmart, etc., just a little longer each day. To say Jones was simply a madman discounts his uncanny ability to manipulate and control such a large group of people to do the unthinkable. Since this time we have seen variants of Cult Leaders like Jones since the Guyana Tragedy and while the cause of his death was a gunshot to the head, I hope that when the US Government flew his body to Dover AFB, somebody from the CIA, FBI, etc., tried to preserve what was left of his brain before his body was cremated, so it can be studied and see if there are any links to the makeup of his brain, DNA, genome map, etc., to those of other cult leaders have already or will become available (a comparison with Jim Jones to Charles Manson (when the time comes) would be fascinating. One last thing - the 1980 movie "Guyana Tragedy: The story of Jim Jones" was an outstanding made for TV movie, especially the performance of Powers Booth

Historia
They were the last great band of the '60s and the first great band of the '70s. They rose, somewhat unpromisingly, from the ashes of the Yardbirds to become one of the biggest-selling rock bands of all time - and eventually paid the price for it, with disaster, drug addiction, and death.

Historia
Large numbers of atheists, humanists, and conspiracy theorists are raising one of the most pressing questions in the history of religion: "Did Jesus exist at all?" Was he invented out of whole cloth for nefarious purposes by those seeking to control the masses? Or was Jesus such a shadowy figure - far removed from any credible historical evidence - that he bears no meaningful resemblance to the person described in the Bible?

Great book – no agenda/dogma, just facts
Revisado: 03-19-13
Any additional comments?
This is a great book that is not biased; rather, it is a logical exploration about if Jesus was an actual historical person and what was he really like. The author was not overly impressed with himself and did not get into a plethora of “academic speak”. Simply an outstanding book that causes one to really think.
