Summary

In the light of the carbon dating process carried out in 1988, this book aims to interpret the Turin Shroud anew. It shows that carbon dating has not solved the mystery, that all the indications are that the Shroud's image is photographic, and that the image's blood includes DNA.

The Blood and the Shroud Summary

The Blood and the Shroud by Ian Wilson

The Turin Shroud Revealed is completely devoted to interpreting the Shroud anew in the light of the carbon dating process carried out in 1988. It pain- stakingly shows that carbon dating has resolved nothing of the mystery; that allthe indications are that the Shroud's body image is photographic in character, that the Shroud's blood includes DNA, and that something corresponding to the Shroud's description was extant at least as early as the 6th century. The book tries to embrace every aspect of the subject; photographic, medical, scientific and historic, and attempts to encompass fairly and objectively all currently known arguments for and against the Shroud's authenticity.
