Decidedly not about faith, belief in God, or religious doctrine, this book is about the churchâs accumulation of wealth and its byzantine entanglements with financial markets across the world. Told through 200 years of prelates, bishops, cardinals, and the Popes who oversee it all, Gerald Posner uncovers an eyebrow-raising account of money and power. 610 20 $a Catholic Church $x Finance. 610 20 $a Catholic Church $x Corrupt practices. 610 20 $a Istituto per le opere di religione $x Corrupt practices. 650 0 $a Banks and banking $z Vatican City. 610 20 $a Catholic Church $x History $y 20th century. 610 20 $a Catholic Church $x History $y 21st century. 610 20 $a Catholic Church $v Controversial literature. 700 1 $a Parks, Tom, $d 1965- $e narrator. 830 0 $a Brilliance Audio on compact disc. 941 $a 1 945 $a cdab 952 $l CAPH522 $d 20150717010426.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=2A6A0BD62C4911E5B59122B0DAD10320Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
