Don't waste your time with this book - it is not worth the paper it's printed on. The author clearly does not understand the idea of presenting 'evidence' for and against a given case. He makes endless references to things he considers to be "facts", but does not at any point provide references to substantiate them. The book is basically a rambling monologue that you would hear in a pub if you were unlucky enough to get stuck next to someone who has had a few beers and thinks he knows it all. Worse, the author claims to have discovered all by himself a sercret society that has been in existence for thousands of years, but gives absolutely nothing to back up such an outrageous claim. Instead he tastelessly plugs another book he has written ad nauseum... are we really supposed to think that the real research is to be found there after wasting our time on this one? You would think that it couldn't get any worse, but the grammar and spelling are so poor, my 7th grade English teacher would run out of red ink here! As a researcher myself, this book is an embarassment to the profession.

The one star was given for the books cover, and the paper inside for starting a fire. It was very easy to see, this author had not gone beyond his own conception as to the existence of God. After seeing this authors lack of research in writing this book, I will stay clear of all further books by this author.

I don't think Gardiner intended it to be deep, just simple and easy for most people to understand. If you are a theologian, then don't bother. If you are searching and need a balanced viewpoint thats easy to understand, then buy it, and The Shining Ones.
