Outstanding!

Excellent intro to the writings and thoughts of Thom Hartmann

The Biology of Transcendence: A Blueprint of the Human Spirit

" Yee shall know them by their fruits !! "
Members of traditional churches will not be swayed by this latest of Dr. Pearce's books and - as is evident from previous reviews - neither will certain MDs. Speaking of the "fruits" in my headline: Where are the fruits of billions of dollars spent on, say, cancer ...
