Has anyone read this book? If so, why isn't the core attempts of the order replicated in a major way minus the religious and power driven agenda.
At its core its a solid idea and with the advent of the internet it would be quite easy to organize a fraternity of enlightened souls to share knowledge and research whilst helping each other to grow even smarter.
can you give me a quick rundown of the knowledge contained in this book?

OP here.
Basically its a rundown of how to run the organization allegedly stemming from notes Weishaupt. It holds information of the each rank of the group, how to recruit, how lodges are supposed to be run.

Thanks for totally missing the point of the post. I am not here to discuss the content of the book in any other way than how it could be applied for actual good. I don't believe in the illuminati, I read this book out of curiosity of how a society like this might be structured.

its just organizational philosophy? what kind of knowledge did you want to have spread via this method?

I guess you could say that in a way. Its organisational philosophy in the sense that they had reading lists of what they considered to be the most valuable thinkers.
But apart from that its that they basically looked at a persons strengths and tried to set that person up for a path of success mentoring each other in the fields that they were proficient. Guidance in terms of literature and giving people access to what they'd need for their research.
