Review

"Enlightened by the gifts of rational thinking and great knowledge of medicine, Dr. Lavoie will bring the reader into a medical classroom. With simple and accurate teachings of body physiology, anatomy, and forensic medicine, he will provide facts that will offer a totally new vision of the man behind the Shroud of Turin."-- Dr. Gianluca Toraldo, MD, PhD "For those who hunger to know Jesus Christ, Dr. Lavoie's recent study of the Shroud of Jesus is a must read and must have for your spiritual library. This work is the result of forty years of research and investigation, bringing the fruits of modern science into the quest of understanding the origin and meaning of this sacred relic. This book epitomizes St. Anselm of Canterbury's motto: faith seeking understanding."-- Rev. Francis Joseph Hoffman, JCD, CEO of Relevant Radio "No artifact -- in all of history -- has held people in thrall the way the Shroud of Turin has. It stakes a mighty claim; but, as Dr. Lavoie demonstrates, an overwhelming preponderance of evidence favors its claim. This book brings all that evidence together, with photos and abundant illustrations, subjecting it to close and dispassionate analysis. The author is always engaging. He never over-reaches. There is no more comprehensive book for those who are curious -- or skeptical -- about the Shroud."-- Scott Hahn, founder and president, St. Paul Center for Biblical Theology "The Shroud of Turin has been the subject of many studies, but this book by Dr. Lavoie stands out for its comprehensive and accurate presentation of the scientific, photographic, historical, religious, and medical information known so far about the shroud. The image on the shroud, which devoted pilgrims throughout history believe to be a miraculous image of Jesus Christ, was formed by a process that today's science still cannot explain, as Dr. Lavoie shows. And not only that, the book presents new and significant insights into how the shroud might be a visible sign of the Gospel message."-- Michael Cafferty, BSEE, MIT., MSEE, University of California "This book offers Dr. Lavoie's own scrupulous detective work built especially on his knowledge, as a physician, of the human body both in life and death. And truly the book does read like a detective mystery with persistent analysis and reanalysis, with hypotheses tested by experimentation, with surprising new insights and with a stunning conclusion."-- Rev. Jurgen Liias, Priest of the Ordinariate of the Chair of St. Peter "This fascinating book uses modern science to examine and validate an astonishing Biblical claim."-- Lynette Lewis, Emmy-Award-Winning Television Producer "This is a veritable summa of Shroud studies, incorporating evidence from disciplines as diverse as botany and history, chemistry and theology, Judaic studies and forensic science. It leaves no stitch unexamined, no stones of history unturned. Over the course of decades, Dr. Lavoie has tested every objection to the Shroud's authenticity. He details his findings here without ever bogging the narrative. The book would be a page-turner if only the photos weren't so riveting! You'll want to stop and examine every one."-- Mike Aquilina, author, The Fathers of the Church and The Apostles and Their Times
