Opus Dei by John L. Allen Jr.
An Objective Look Behind the Myths and Reality of the Most Controversial Force in the Catholic Church
A balanced, investigative account that traces the movement’s origins and spirituality, profiles its varied membership and internal structures, and examines long-standing controversies over secrecy, discipline, recruitment and influence in the Church and wider society; drawing on interviews, documents and statistics, the book aims to separate sensational myths from documented realities, portraying an organization that inspires intense personal commitment and conservative influence while often being less monolithic and sinister than popular portrayals suggest.
