About this Item

' Written in response to THE DA VINCI CODE, this nonfiction anthology examines several of the source materials used by Dan Brown in creating the bestselling--and controversial--thriller, and attempts to separate historical fact from fiction. Various pieces by scientists, theologians, and historians explore various issues raised by the book, including the true role Mary Magdalene and other women may have had in the early years of the Church, the nature of Mary Magdalene's relationship with Jesus, and whether Leonardo da Vinci actually belonged to a secret society."374p. glossary.
