In his audiobook "The Illuminati: Exposing the Secret Society that Runs the World," historian Shmuel Cohen—who has inside knowledge of this illusive organization—offers a captivating examination of the notorious secret society that is the driving force behind the dynamics of world power. Based on his singular experiences and in-depth historical research, Cohen explores the murky realm of the Illuminati, charting its purported beginnings, development, and ongoing impact on current events.

Cohen starts out by looking at the actual Bavarian Illuminati, which Adam Weishaupt created in 1776, and how its Enlightenment principles may have served as a model for a more intricate and extensive group. He then explains how the Illuminati exerts covert influence on significant historical events by navigating through centuries of political upheavals, wars, economic changes, and technical developments.

The audiobook connects the dots between well-known individuals, organizations, and occasions through its engrossing examination of symbols, codes, and purported Illuminati rituals. Cohen explains how the Illuminati today has unparalleled power over media, economics, politics, and technology, by discussing how the digital age and globalization have given them access to new tools and platforms for their activities.
