Overview
Opus Dei is perhaps one of the most
controversial religious organisations of our time.
For many years there was little information
about its history and development. More
recently attempts have been made to make its
structure and organisation are now much more
transparent. For some, however, the
organisation is seen as a powerful and shadowy
institution with wealth, influence and many
dark secrets. This revealing book aims to find
out the truth behind the myths and the
speculation, and examines the faces and
personalities behind its institution.
This book presents a global perspective of the
Opus Dei that considers its influence on a
worldwide scale and reveals the truth behind
this powerful institution.
• Investigates the secret world of the Opus Dei and
details its humble beginnings in Spain nearly 80 years
ago to its unique status as a powerful autonomous entity
at the very heart of the Catholic church today
• Uncovers the background of the characters involved in
Opus Dei, such as its founder Josemaria Escriva de
Balaguer, General Franco and Pope John Paul II
• Looks at the membership of Opus Dei, the commitment,
numeraries and supernumaries, rules for entering and
leaving, the treatment of women and the controversial
recruitment of members in schools and universities
• Reveals the true relationship with the Vatican, the
finances and charities, and explores objectively the many
conspiracy theories about and criticisms of the organization
