The Shroud of Turin remains one of the enduring mysteries of our age. No convincing explanation has yet been given for the "negative" image of a crucified man transferred to a length of cloth and preserved in Turin for the last four centuries. Although radiocarbon dating of the fabric in 1998 indicated it to be medieval, synchronous with the Shroud's first recorded appearance in the 1350s, there is still no satisfactory explanation for the image itself.Wilson's landmark, bestselling book on this subject, The Shroud of Turin, was published in 1978. In the intervening years, much additional research has been done on the Shroud, and the dating process itself has been scrutinized, Wilson's enthralling text, with its objective but persuasive answers, tells us as much is currently possible to know. It also make it possible for us to believe.
