Many questions answered

Unlocking the Secrets of the Shroud is well written. A broad range of scientific and medical evidence is examined in depth. Facts are presented concisely. The logic is well thought out, methodical, and thorough. The book is written as a first person narrative. Despite the complexity of the material it reads easily and is entertaining. There is little religion interjected except that of interesting historical relevance to the material evidence. I found most of the criticisms written in other reviews to be unfounded.

Made me want to delve deeper and hear rebuttal

Good work. Quick, easy, flowing and stimulating.

This book makes me study the Word of God

Thinking about the "Son of the Man" and about something more important than the Resurrection,starting with the Shroud of Turin, this and discovering important facts about Jesus and the Shroud, is possible with the lecture of this book. The Shroud made the author study the Word of God, and the author's book makes me study the Word of God. Therefore this book is absolutely good for me.

Blood marks and a miraculous image defy mere carbon dating.

Dismiss everything you've read about carbon dating and let Dr. Lavoie lead you through the revelations he has reached through years of painstaking study. Scientific understanding gives way to humbling faith, and soon the reader finds himself or herself standing with the beloved disciple at the foot of the cross--and stooping to enter the tomb, where "he saw and believed."
