Zusatztext “ God’s Bankers is often fascinating reading! full of international intrigue. . . . God’s Bankers is meticulously researched. Almost 200 pages of end notes indicate the care Posner took in nine years spent researching his subject. . . . The book tells a compelling story! but never at the expense of journalistic principles. Posner might speculate! but he is always careful to mark it as such! and to point out the facts and primary sources that support or undermine the speculation. . . . His work pulls together existing scholarship and massive amounts of original research to present the closest thing to a definitive account of the workings of money and finance within the Vatican that could be produced without cooperation from the Vatican itself.” — Washington Independent Review of Books Informationen zum Autor Gerald Posner was one of the youngest attorneys ever hired by the Wall Street law firm of Cravath, Swaine & Moore.
