A Doctor's Revolutionary Research into the Biology of Near-Death and Mystical Experiences
A Doctor's Revolutionary Research into the Biology of Near-Death and Mystical Experiences

Review:Great read about the effects of DMT. It's amazing what are bodies are made to do and heal if given the opportunity. Too bad we all can't increase our DMT and other natural chemicals to heal our body and rid the western civilization of unnecessary medicines. I love the insight and respectful thoughts this doctor makes in regards to one day making DMT more available for all. It also teaches that when taken properly, psychedelics can be our greatest hero, and explains the stigma that they have on o... Read more

The Real James Herriot: A Memoir of My Father
The Real James Herriot: A Memoir of My Father

Review:If you have loved the stories of James Herriot you will love this book. It is written by his son, Jim Wight. As I learned, Herriot was a pen name. Mr. Wight writes with almost the same beautiful style that his father used. It's a very easy, enjoyable read. Read more

The Lord God Made Them All (All Creatures Great and Small)
The Lord God Made Them All (All Creatures Great and Small)

Review:I love this book! I have practically all books by James Harriot and I enjoy reading them. It is so refreshing at these hard times. Its kindness, love of people and animals, humour help to lift spirit, feel relaxed and happy. Read more

Making Smarter Decisions When You Don't Have All the Facts
Making Smarter Decisions When You Don't Have All the Facts

Review:This is a book that delivers more than it promises. Annie Duke teaches us how to set aside many of our pre-conceived notions about positive and negative outcomes. She provides us with a framework to accept either result derived from the countless decisions we make in business and in our private everyday lives.
The titles for each chapter and subheading inspire the reader to hunker down and examine life through the prism of a poker player champion. How would each important decision be mad... Read more

New Scientific Concepts to Improve Your Thinking (Edge Question Series)
New Scientific Concepts to Improve Your Thinking (Edge Question Series)

Review:Mostly written by people who ignore science and math. Mostly written by people who can write for hours without citing one quantity or measurement. Social sciences gave us Karl Marx. All b.s.

But I did appreciate the articles having a non-social science basis using double blind studies and design experiments. Read more

Through Time Into Healing
Through Time Into Healing

Review:Extremely thought-provoking; a good follow-on from Dr. Weiss's first book on the subject (Many Lives, Many Masters). I strongly recommend reading these for contemplation of many things about this life. Read more

The Red Book (Philemon)
The Red Book (Philemon)

Review:One of the most important books to be published in recent memory. Jung's seminal oeuvre is not only important as a psychology book and specifically the study of the "Archetypes"; it is a critical study in the history of Western scholarship in general. It will go down in history in the company of works by Blake and De Lubicz. Read more

Reflections On Archetypal Images - The Book of Symbols
Reflections On Archetypal Images - The Book of Symbols

Review:Unfortunately, this book reflects how the institutional "Jungians" lack a real sense and knowledge of the spiritual dimension. Their understanding of symbols and archetypes has devolved to the secular psychological view of images and ideas. This book is one of many now which return Jung's rich multi-dimensional comprehension back to flatland. The pictures, however, are attractive. Read more

With Symbols and the Interpretation of Dreams (Jung Extracts)
With Symbols and the Interpretation of Dreams (Jung Extracts)

Review:I read this volume while preparing to teach a summer General Psychology course and was absolutely blown away by how relevant Jung's thinking is to today's world.

This powerful book is so far removed from the Gen Psy textbook blather about Jung, (basically blowing him off in a paragraph or two as "a former disciple of Freud who focused on dreams and Christianity and had a falling out with the great master..."),that I found myself marvelling over it and reading passages out loud to my long-...

World Without Cancer; The Story of Vitamin B17
World Without Cancer; The Story of Vitamin B17

Review:I have read the first half of this book, discussing the science of cancer therapy. It is very informative, with lots of historical information, individual case studies (though clinically simplified) and many citations, which could be followed up on if one had the time. The second half of the book deals with the politics of cancer therapy, which I may or may not read. Read more
