All of Sylvia Brownes's material is interesting. Sometimes I'm not sure if I believe what she writes, but she even encourages people to reach inside themselves and do research for themselves, and to not just take her word for it. This was a very interesting book.

I can't say I'm a huge Sylvia Browne fan. I think a lot of her theories or visions are a bit out there, even for me.

Si presenta come un ottimo libro dove misteri e curiosità...perplessità ed incertezze sui vari misteri che affliggono la mente umana e ci attorniano trovano largo spazio in doviziose recensioni e approfondimenti spirituali e non (ed anche di vita propria) presentati dalla grande Sylvie ormai apprezzata in tutto il mondo per le sue doti-qualità. Le sue parole portano uno squarcio di luce nelle tenebre in cui questi argomenti sono stati per troppo tempo avvolti, trascinando il lettore in un viaggio pieno di sorprese nel mondo meraviglioso che vive intorno a noi. Lo scientifico ed il soprannaturale si uniscono per dare uno spiraglio di luce a quanti dei fenomeni o dei termini che noi usiamo sono stati però privati del loro significato simbolico. Certo non è una rappresaglia scientifica sugli stessi benché abbia l'autrice stessa cercato di dare alle sue affermazioni uno tale supporto ma prevale comunque in essi la curiosità e lo spiritualismo che da sempre la contraddistinguano! Uomini e uomini si cimentano in fantasie assurde o surreali ma lei ha cercano di rispondere sensatamente (nel possibile delle sue facoltà) a misteri e ai segreti che tutti i giorni vediamo o ai quali la nostra mente divaga: un libro da leggere e apprezzare di per se perché di più fattibili che non si discostano dal senso della realtà non ce ne sono!

For those of us who have always been fascinated by the unexplained—or inadequately explained—secrets and mysteries of this world, Sylvia Browne now comes to the rescue. Using a combination of information from her spirit guide Francine as well as her own incredible psychic powers , Sylvia augments current scientific research to provide us with detailed explanations about seemingly inexplicable concepts.

From the Great Pyramid to Stonehenge, Sylvia reveals mazing facts about some of the world’s most mysterious sites. The truth behind sacred and controversial topics such as the Shroud of Turin, the Holy Grail, and the lost years of Jesus are also brought to light; and fascinating and mysterious subjects such as crop circles, vampires, voodoo, Atlantis, extraterrestrials, Easter Island, and many more are examined and clarified.

Sylvia tears away the obscure and timeworn explanations that hide the underlying truths about these phenomena, taking us on a fabulous journey that unlocks the secrets and mysteries that surround us in this “wonder-full” world.

Very interesting... It makes you think, but necessarily believe.

Freaky book.....

Most of it was interesting. Though I did skip large chunks. Didn't agree with some topics.

Sylvia je znana jasnovidka, v tej knjigi pa nam predstavi številne misterije in skrivnosti, katere poskuša razložiti na drugačen način. Pravi, da naj verjamemo, tisto kar čutimo in ne njenim zapisanih besedam. Kdo ve, kakšna je resnica, toda morda je lahko tudi takšna. Tako skupaj z avtorico raziskujemo številne skrivnosti: 0d krajev in nenavadnih kipov (Stonejenge. Velikonočni otok...), nenavadna bitja (vile, čarovnice, nezemljane), do predmetov (kamni iz Ice, piramide, sfinge, skrivnostnih pojavov in ugank, pa tudi krščanske polemike.
Zelo zanimivo napisana knjige. Če ne drugega, če ne verjamemo v nič od tega, nas vsaj spomni na vse te stvari, ki človeštvo burijo že vrsto let.

First of all, let me say that I don't always agree with Sylvia. However, who wants to argue with a psychic when they claim to have knowledge that I know myself I do not have?

Second of all, I do not care what Anderson Cooper uncovered about her whether she's legit or not, or even what James Randi says about any psychic? You don't have to believe, but I do.

Furthermore, if it were me in Ms. Sylvia's place, I would not want to prove to anyone either. It's like trying to prove the existence of GOD, or even if a million dollars actually existed. Just because my bank account doesn't have it, doesn't mean I don't believe that it does or doesn't exist.

After all this has been said, the book Secrets & Mysteries of the World is an interesting read to say the least. However, I still do not agree with Sylvia concerning whether Satan, Lucifer, the "Devil" doesn't exist.

You have to be a believer in unnatural abilities. You have to have an interest in the secrets the world has. This book was a disappointment not because of the author but what she said. I always had more wonder and hopes for what was out there. If what she said is real I wish I hadn't have read it and kept my own uncertainty. Ignorance can be bliss, in this case. Im not saying don't read it but maybe ask your self if you really want to know.

i enjoy reading her books!
