One Colonel Ardenti, who has unnaturally black, brilliantined hair, an Adolphe Menjou mustache, wears maroon socks, and once served in the Foreign Legion, starts it all. He tells three Milan editors that he has discovered a coded message about a Templar Plan, centuries old and involving Stonehenge, to tap a mystic source of power greater than atomic energy. The editors (who have spent altogether too much time rewriting crackpot manuscripts on the occult by self~subsidizing poetasters and dilettantes) decide to have a little fun. They'll make a Plan of their own. But how? Randomly they throw in manuscript pages on hermetic thought. The Masters of the World, who live beneath the earth. The Comte de Saint~Germain, who lives forever. The secrets of the solar system contained in the measurements of the Great Pyramid. The Satanic initiation rites of the Knights of the Temple. Assassins, Rosicrucians, Brazilian voodoo. They feed all this into their computer, which is named Abulafia (Abu for short), after the medieval Jewish cabalist. A terrific joke, they think~ until people begin to disappear mysteriously, one by one, starting with Colonel Ardenti. A superb entertainment by the celebrated author of The Name of the Rose.

Thanks, Mr. Akenson, to say the very least." ~ROGER ROSENBLATT. With wit, elegance, and clarity, Surpassing Wonder illummates the ancient Hebrew scriptures, the Christian "New Testament," and the Talmuds of the Rabbis. Over the past thousand years, these documents have been a source of worship and a subject of study. At times they have been accessible to the people, and at other times they have been hidden from us. Most recently, the effect of religious and scholarly fundamentalism has been to cover them with layers of interpretation and exegesis. This makes it more difficult for the ordinary person to encounter the texts and to experience their wisdom and power. Now, in this magisterial work, historian Donald Harman Akenson takes a radical historical look at these founding documents. Studying them and the surrounding scholarship, Akenson has arrived at a new and galvanizing understanding. He argues persuasively that these founding texts are best understood if they are each regarded as having been written by one author~editor. He then brings the Jerusalem and Babylonian Talmuds into clear focus, as no other writer has done. Using images that range from tractor mechanics to Winnie~the~Pooh, Akenson explains how Western civilization was created not by the Greeks of Athens or the patricians of Rome but by the desert worshippers of Yahweh. Akenson's interpretation is brilliant. charming, and persuasive, even as his narrative is riveting. He attacks those who over the millennia have sought to keep these words from the populace~and he opens our eves to the grandeur and the greatness of scripture.
