Isaac Newton's Freemasonry: A huge disappointment. No light to be found here. The title suggests that the subjects of alchemy, science, and mysticism will be explored through the mind and actions of Isaac Newton. But the text fails to deliver.
Nothing to see here: This disappointing book by Grand Master of the Grand Orient de France, Alain Bauer reads more like a slightly extended after dinner speech. The actual meat of the text is just 80 pages long, culled from other (better) books. It is padded with additional, and almost totally unrelated, material, including a timeline of the development of French Freemasonry, for no apparent reason. Unfortunately a bad case of misleading packaging.
Don't take his word: The Grand Orient of France ignores some very important rules of Freemasonry and therefore are not recogized by other Grand Lodges, leaving them clandestine. I'm not saying that this fellow cannot do research, but if your views are already skewed by clandestine masonry then who is to say your research isn't as well?
