As new condition black boards with gold spine lettering contained in an as new condition non price-clipped color illustrated dust jacket. Includes Foreword; Introduction; About the Author; Acknowledgments; Selected Bibliography; and Glossary. "Breaking the Da Vinci Code is a must-read for anyone who wants to understand the pernicious nature of The Da Vinci Code." - David Neff, Editor & Vice-President, Christianity Today "Ordinarily, an entire book would hardly be necessary to refute the errors in The Da Vinci Code - just a trenchant review article. Yet Dan Brown's book is so packed with historical error, deception, and falsehood, as well as outright hostility to the truths of Christianity, that it does indeed take a book to correct the record. Breaking the Da Vinci Code is a welcome literary antidote against literary poison." - Paul L. Maier, Professor of History (Western Mich. U.) and Author of More Than a Skeleton "From my Roman Catholic tradition, I am happy to join Darrell and his Protestant tradition to affirm that the 'myth' of The da Vinci Code does not have a leg to stand on in its attempt to dethrone the two-thousand-year-old Christian story of what God has done for us in and through Jesus Christ. He has 'broken' The Da Vinci Code." - Francis J. Moloney, S.D.B., D.Phil (from Foreword), Dean, School of Theology and Religious Studies, The Catholic University of America "Finding the real Jesus: Was Leonardo da Vinci the one person who stumbled onto a Vatican plot to conceal the truth about Jesus and then exposed it in his famous work of art "The Last Supper"? Have sinister global religious organizations suppressed secrets that reveal "the real Jesus"? These are the questions people are asking after reading The Da Vinci Code. Can the so-called "secret" Gnostic Gospels lead us to a Jesus we don't know?; Did Jesus marry and have children? Was Mary Magdalene really one of the apostles?; Were the New Testament Gospels assembled in the way "the code" implies?; Just how much of The Da Vinci Code should we believe? Many have been troubled by the unorthodox historical claims found in Dan Brown's novel while others have excitedly embraced its version of Christian history. Breaking the Da Vinci Code will help you recognize the agenda that lurks behind the codes. Darrell L. Bock will help you break the Da Vinci Code - to distinguish fictitious entertainment from genuine historical elements of Christian faith. But be prepared. As Dr. Bock warns, "There are some interesting - even alarming - surprises along the way" as you discover the most important code of all." "I love a spinning tall tale as much as any novelist, but I was disturbed by the blatant attack on the tenets of Christianity put out so plausibly in The Da Vinci Code. If Dan Brown had read a clear, concise explanation with irrefutable evidence of who Jesus really was, like this excellent book by Dr. Darrell Bock, he might not have swallowed Satan's age-old attack on the deity of Christ. I'll keep Breaking the Da Vinci Code on my reference shelf." - Colleen Coble - Author of Without a Trace.…

Store description
Vero Beach Books is an antiquarian bookseller with a constantly updated inventory of rare out-of-print books, signed books, children's books, plus a large inventory of ephemeral items such as major U.S. city newspapers going back 100 years and more, golden and silver age fine condition comic books (soon to be added), and many other ephemeral items as well as much more recent popular volumes. We have been in business for 25 years, originally known as Emerson Books (named after one of our owner's favorite authors, to wit, Ralph Waldo Emerson) located back then in Westport, Connecticut. That said, we are here to serve you, to offer you fine quality items that are conservatively described so that you will always be pleasantly surprised and delighted with your purchase. Twenty-five years in the bookselling business has borne out our stellar service oriented reputation; the only difference is that now we are located in the almost always sunny and warm climate of Vero Beach, Florida. Again, we are here to serve you and, as was the case when we were previously known on ABEBooks.com as Emerson Books, we will continue to offer our very popular 100% free search service for those hard to find books rare and out of print books. Oftentimes we are also able to obtain these rare finds at very good discounts to our customers' so it is always worth contacting us in such cases!
