Temple University Press,U.S. Ghostly Encounters
Book SynopsisIn the top corner of the window a pale, milky-white wisp is rising almost to the top of our ten-foot ceiling. I am startled but not afraid. Mostly, I am engrossed; I have never seen anything like this before (or since) and it fascinates me.Dennis Waskul writes these linesabout his first-hand experience with the supernaturalin the introduction to his beguiling book Ghostly Encounters. Based on two years of fieldwork and interviews with 71 midwestern Americans, the Waskuls' book is a reflexive ethnography that examines how people experience ghosts and hauntings in everyday life. The authors explore how uncanny happenings become ghosts, and the reasons people struggle with or against a will to believe. They present the variety and character of hauntings and ghostly encounters, outcomes of people telling haunted legends, and the nested consequences of ghostly experiences. Through these stories, Ghostly Encounters seeks to understand the persistence of uncanny experiences and beliefs in gTable of ContentsPrefaceAcknowledgments1 The Trouble with Ghosts2 Ghostly Reason3 Ghostly Topology4 Ghostly Legends5 Ghostly SpeculationsAppendix: Methods and DataReferencesIndex

Columbia University Press Mind Beyond Brain
Book SynopsisNeuroscientist David E. Presti, with the assistance of other researchers, explores how evidence for anomalous phenomena—such as near-death experiences, apparent memories of past lives, apparitions, and other so-called psi or paranormal phenomena, including telepathy, clairvoyance, and precognition—can influence the Buddhism-science conversation.Trade ReviewBeginning with the unsettling title and continuing through chapters that take an empirical approach to exploring near-death experiences, reincarnation, mediums, and apparitions, Mind Beyond Brain asks the reader to set aside preconceptions and deeply-held assumptions in order to understand the depths of human consciousness. An engaging read, sure to give a healthy intellectual prod to even the most committed physical materialist. -- Rich Ivry, Professor of Psychology and Neuroscience, University of California, BerkeleyMind Beyond Brain embraces and celebrates the natural sciences and their materialist frameworks but also suggests that our understanding of the natural almost certainly needs to be expanded, greatly, and that the physicalist frameworks may not be the final answer to our deepest and most difficult questions about subjectivity, mind, or consciousness. Presti is a perfect narrator, host, and guide here. He strikes a wonderful balance between embracing and celebrating the advances of the sciences and wanting them to go further still. -- Jeffrey J. Kripal, J. Newton Rayzor Chair in Philosophy and Religious Thought, Rice UniversityThis book could open important doors for any thinking person today. It courageously provides important philosophical critiques of the dominant physical materialist worldview along with a great deal of well-documented, challenging counter-evidence drawn from all-too-neglected fields of psychological research. It is a compelling read for anyone who realizes that the acknowledgement of the active role of 'mind' (whatever it is, we all have one, and we need to get to know it better!) in nature is indispensable for the revolutionary paradigm shift that science requires to break through its current deadlock, presiding over the great extinction facing our planet and our sentient selves. -- Robert Thurman, Jey Tsong Khapa Professor of Indo-Tibetan Buddhist Studies, Columbia UniversityMind Beyond Brain explores the implications of empirical evidence challenging the prevailing view that the mind is simply a function of the brain. This timely book places the issue within the ongoing dialogue between science and Buddhism and reinstates the spirit of open-minded, radical empiricism that has always characterized science and Buddhism at their best. With their discussions of compelling evidence, examined with rigorous logic, the eminently qualified authors of this book point the way forward to catalyzing the first true revolution in the mind sciences. -- B. Alan Wallace, President, Santa Barbara Institute for Consciousness StudiesAcademics, both in and outside the fields of neuroscience and Buddhism, who are interested in psi phenomena will find this publication accessible and reader-friendly, though not reductionistic in content. * Reading Religion *This fine book should be widely read and debated as we try to formulate a radical new perspective where mind is a central part of nature rather than an epiphenomenon of neural processes. This will lead to a new and constructive relationship between science and spirituality. * Paradigm Explorer *Serve[s] a useful purpose on two fronts (academic and lay-oriented), and it deserves attention from readers on both sides. * Journal of the Society for Psychical Research *This is a fascinating. . . book that treads the boundaries between science and mysticism in an enlightening way. * Magonia Review of Books *Readers who are interested in science, mind, and psi phenomena will find Mind Beyond Brain to be both fascinating and accessible. -- Renee L.

Inner Traditions Bear and Company Sacred Geometry: Language of the Angels
Book SynopsisReveals how the number science found in ancient sacred monuments reflects wisdom transmitted from the angelic orders • Explains how the angels transmitted megalithic science to early humans to further our conscious development • Decodes the angelic science hidden in a wide range of monuments, including Carnac in Brittany, the Great Pyramid in Egypt, early Christian pavements, the Hagia Sophia in Istanbul, Stonehenge in England, and the Kaaba in Mecca • Explores how the number science behind ancient monuments gave rise to religions and spiritual practices The angelic mind is founded on a deep understanding of number and the patterns they produce. These patterns provided a constructive framework for all manifested life on Earth. The beauty and elegance we see in sacred geometry and in structures built according to those proportions are the language of the angels still speaking to us. Examining the angelic science of number first manifested on Earth in the Stone Age, Richard Heath reveals how the resulting development of human consciousness was no accident: just as the angels helped create the Earth’s environment, humans were then evolved to make the planet self-aware. To develop human minds, the angels transmitted their own wisdom to humanity through a numerical astronomy that counted planetary and lunar time periods. Heath explores how this early humanity developed an expert understanding of sacred number through astronomical geometries, leading to the unified range of measures employed in their observatories and later in cosmological monuments such as the Giza Pyramids and Stonehenge. The ancient Near East transformed megalithic science into our own mathematics of notational arithmetic and trigonometry, further developing the human mind within the early civilizations. Heath decodes the angelic science hidden within a wide range of monuments and sites, including Carnac in Brittany, the Great Pyramid in Egypt, Teotihuacan in Mexico, early Christian pavements, the Hagia Sophia in Istanbul, and the Kaaba in Mecca. Exploring the techniques used to design these monuments, he explains how the number science behind them gave rise to ancient religions and spiritual practices. He also explores the importance of lunar astronomy, first in defining a world suitable for life and then in providing a subject accessible to pre-arithmetic humans, for whom the Moon was a constant companion.Trade Review“Heath illuminates the cosmological ideas informing the teachings of John Bennett and George Gurdjieff. His book is a masterful insight into the origins of ancient wisdom, presented with impeccable analyses of megalithic and historical monuments. It gives a theory of angelic or higher intelligence based on astronomy, music, and number--reflecting the ‘deep thought’ operating at the start of human consciousness.” * ANTHONY BLAKE, author of A Gymnasium of Beliefs in Higher Intelligence *“In Sacred Geometry, Richard Heath proposes, based on his deep and comprehensive analysis of primary sacred sites, that numbers and geometries are the primary medium for divine creation. He proves these sites were built based on specific numbers and geometrical patterns that correspond with the musical octaves. Heath concludes angels inspired these sites to advance evolution on Earth, a very radical idea. If this is true, then angelic science guided the numeric order built into Earth’s design and it’s unfolding in time. I think he’s right. Sacred Geometry is a deep and sustained meditation with the mind of Gaia--brilliant!” * BARBARA HAND CLOW, author of Awakening the Planetary Mind *“Richard Heath has deeply studied the astonishing harmonic insights possessed by the creators of ancient stone structures. He translates for us the sacred languages of number, tone, and geometry that they embodied in stone as expressions of and homage to the cosmic order found in the sky.” * JOHN OSCAR LIEBEN, author of Sacred Geometry for Artists, Dreamers, and Philosophers *“Richard Heath’s erudite and rigorous magnum opus ranges eloquently from Pythagoras to Gurdjieff, via Hamlet’s Mill, and demonstrates that for the diligent moon counter, sacred geometry is truly a ‘language of Being.’” * GARETH MILLS, The Speaking Tree Bookshop, Glastonbury *“Loaded with detailed illustrations, diagrams, graphs, and photographs, Heath transports the reader around the world demonstrating his knowledge and insights into how all of this ancient knowledge fits together and can be understood by the modern intellectual and spiritual mind.”-- * Brent Raynes, Alternate Perceptions Archival Newsletter *"In this beautifully illustrated thesis, Heath shows precisely how number, proportion and astronomy were inter-related in cultures all over the world to express the ideals of divine wisdom. The book not only demonstrates these processes with photos and diagrams but also shows why this ‘science’ is important and must not be lost." * Fortean Times *"All in all, Sacred Geometry frames the foundation of the universe, physical building, and human life in an entirely new way. By focusing on the mathematics of that time, rather than the abstracted forms used now, a new perspective emerges. I am open to the possibility of a higher intelligence imparting the template for humanity to grow, and I enjoyed how this book pushed the boundaries of what’s commonly accepted in many fields, from religion to science to math." * Alanna Kali, Musing Mystical *Table of ContentsPreface INTRODUCTION Angelic Transmission through Sacred Number PART ONE The Universal Will Introduction to Part One 1 Ratios of the Angelic Mind The Required Act of Self-Initiation Reading the Angelic Mind Ancient Metrological Foot Ratios Metrology of the First Eleven Squares Megalithic Use of Angelic Ratios 2 Models of Time and Space Right Triangles Circles and Squares The Third Triangle and the Golden Mean 3 Measurements of the Earth The Equal Perimeter Model The Metrological Model The System of Root Value Modules Models of the World 4 Temples of the Earth Great Pyramid of Giza, 2560 BCE The Parthenon Model, 400 BCE Sanchi Great Stupa, 232 BCE The Hagia Sophia, 537 CE Realizing the Land PART TWO The Cosmic Individuality Introduction to Part Two Monotheism and the Musical Octave A Musical Arrival 5 Harmony of the Local Cosmos The Harmonic Planetary Model Representing Planetary Harmony The Megalithic Model of Planetary Harmony Locating the Feathered Serpent Harmonic Cities of the Second Triangle 6 The Savior God The Numbers of Salvation 7 Pavements of the Savior The Story at Glastonbury Westminster’s Cosmati Pavement Canterbury’s Cosmic Conundrum 8 The Focal Buildings of Islam The Kaaba The Kaaba’s Harmonic Code Dimensions beyond the Kaaba The Model of the World in the Hatīm The Dome of the Rock 9 Cosmological Numeracy Gurdjieff and Bennett Systematics Ninefoldness as a Universal Scheme The Enneagram of Life Systematics in the Sky POSTSCRIPT Emergence APPENDIX 1 A Developmental History of Metrology Five Phases for Metrology Three Key Topics The Foot-Based Modules of Ancient Metrology APPENDIX 2 The Significance of the Moon A Moon That Made Life Possible?

Inner Traditions Bear and Company Demons and Spirits of the Land: Ancestral Lore
Book SynopsisOur pagan ancestors knew that every forest has brownies and fairies, every spring its lady, and every river malevolent beings in its depths. They told tales of giants in the hills, dragons in the lakes, marshes swarming with will-o'-the-wisps, and demons and wild folk in the mountains who enjoyed causing landslides, avalanches, and floods. They both feared and respected these entities, knowing the importance of appeasing them for safe travel and a prosperous homestead. Exploring medieval stories, folk traditions, spiritual place names, and pagan rituals of home building and site selection, Claude Lecouteux reveals the multitude of spirits and entities that once inhabited the land before modern civilization repressed them into desert solitude, impenetrable forests, and inaccessible mountains. He explains how, to our ancestors, enclosing a space was a sacred act. Specific rites had to be performed to negotiate with the local spirits and ensure proper placement and protection of a new building. These land spirits often became the household spirit, taking up residence in a new building in exchange for permission to build on their territory. Lecouteux explores Arthurian legends, folk tales, and mythology for evidence of the untamed spirits of the wilderness, such as giants, dragons, and demons, and examines the rites and ceremonies used to gain their good will. Lecouteux reveals how, despite outright Church suppression, belief in these spirits carried through to modern times and was a primary influence on architecture, an influence still visible in today's buildings. The author also shows how our ancestors' concern for respecting nature is increasingly relevant in today's world.Trade Review“What are the ancient mysteries of earth and water? Guided by the sure hand of Claude Lecouteux in this erudite and accessible book, we find keys to the recovery and renewed understanding of indigenous European religious traditions concerning land and water. A valuable book--highly recommended.” * Arthur Versluis, author of Sacred Earth and Religion of Light *“Demons and Spirits of the Land is a scholarly investigation of the spirits present in the traditional landscape of Europe. Claude Lecouteux explains how humans are inseparable from our surroundings: we are not the only intelligent beings, for we cohabit the Earth with other sentient entities. Traditionally, these entities manifest as land spirits who take many forms: giants, dwarves, brownies, fairies, and dragons. Present in the land, they must be dealt with if humans are to live in harmony and well-being. This book details rites and ceremonies of coming to terms with the spirits of tree and forest, spring and mountain, taken from comprehensive documentary and folklore sources, including ancient authors, Arthurian legends, medieval romances, and Norse sagas. If you want to know about the nature of land spirits and how we relate to them, this is essential reading.” * Nigel Pennick, author of The Book of Primal Signs: The High Magic of Symbols *“A superbly written treatise on the folklore of place, showing how the church has demonized once revered and respected land spirits. The setting up of high crosses, statues of saints, and the ringing of bells has been done for two thousand years to repel and control the fairies, elves, dragons, dwarves, and giants our ancestors once placated and venerated. But are we better off for all the church’s civilizing efforts? “We are now at a turning point in human history where we need to come to terms with what we have wrought. The Earth Mother has given us food, healing, and shelter, and we have abused her in return. Reading these pages we learn that the dark path through the wilderness may once again lead us to a sacred space within the forest where in respectful company with the ancient deities, land wight’s, and the fey, we may yet resume our ancient offerings, begin the healing, and return to harmony with all creation.” * Ellen Evert Hopman, author of A Druid’s Herbal of Sacred Tree Medicine and The Secret Medicine *Table of ContentsForeword by Régis Boyer Introduction: We Dwell in a Haunted Place Part One A Haunted Universe 1 Unusual Manifestations 2 The First Inhabitants of the Earth 3 Demons and Fallen Angels 4 Cult Remnants 5 The Local Land Spirits 6 The Underside of Idolatry 7 The Evidence of Place-Names 8 Silvanus and Company 9 The Metamorphoses of Spirits 10 A Provisional Assessment Part Two Conquering and Defending the Land 11 Encountering the Spirits of the Local Land 12 Taking Possession of a Piece of Land 13 Circumambulation: Appropriation, Expropriation, and Protection Rites 14 Boundaries and Their Markers 15 The Enclosed Space Is Sacred 16 The Contract with the Spirits 17 The Circular and the Rectangular: A Hypothesis 18 The Conquest of the Space Part Three Survivals and Transformations 19 Waters, Springs, and Fountains 20 The Forest 21 The Mountain and Its Spirits 22 The Problem of Parédrie 23 A Composite Site: The Dwelling of Grendel and His Mother 24 The Moor 25 The Hybridization of Myths 26 The Return of the Place Spirits Afterword Notes Bibliography Index

Grove Press / Atlantic Monthly Press In the Valleys of the Noble Beyond
Book SynopsisSet in a wild and immaculate landscape threatened by industry and environmental degradation, a compassionate and gripping exploration of one of the world’s most baffling mysteries—the existence of the SasquatchTrade ReviewPraise for In the Valleys of the Noble Beyond:Finalist for the Edna Staebler Creative Nonfiction Award An Amazon Best Book of the Year Named a Must-Read Book of 2019 by Book Riot“Books on supernatural phenomena typically steer one of two courses: tabloid gullibility or mean-spirited debunkery. Zada deftly tightropes between the two . . . In the Valleys of the Noble Beyond is not really about sasquatch. It is about how we see what we want to see and don’t see what we’re not prepared to see . . . A quirky and oddly captivating tale.”—Eric Weiner, Washington Post“An adventure story in the tradition of Paul Theroux and, in parts, Jon Krakauer . . . Zada is a latter-day Henry David Thoreau or John Muir . . . Searching for an elusive ape, Zada has a knack for meeting unforgettable humans.”—Peter Kuitenbrouwer, Globe and Mail“If people can believe in God, why not Sasquatch? Zada takes us through the temperate rainforest of British Columbia looking for both the hairy bipedal and the mythology and landscape surrounding it. Terrific nature writing with a furry twist.”—Kerri Arsenault, Orion “Full of dramatic, tense chase scenes—the book is, quite literally, an adventure story.”—Nick Ripatrazone, The Millions“Zada wonders only in passing about how big Bigfoot’s feet are or how richly the creature may stink. His concerns are more metaphysical: What does it mean to believe in something absurd, something that eludes any effort to prove its existence? Roaming through the First Nations communities of coastal British Columbia, Zada camps out at the foggy junction of lore and fact. He’s a disarming travel companion, and his curiosity is contagious.”—Dan Piepenbring, Paris Review“As eloquent and big-hearted as, for instance, Peter Matthiessen’s The Snow Leopard . . . Despite the towering creature at its heart, the genius of In the Valleys of the Noble Beyond is most often its human pathos . . . Odd, winning gravitas . . . The shelf of serious, beautifully done Bigfoot books isn’t exactly a crowded one, but it now has an indisputable classic.”—Steve Donoghue, Open Letters Monthly“Less the hooting and wood-knocking sensationalism of Finding Bigfoot (though that show certainly has its charms) than Robert Michael Pyles’s Where Bigfoot Walks, another book that leans toward respectability with its emphasis on natural history. Zada’s entry is a beautifully rendered account of a mist-shrouded world suspended between myth and modernity: its people, culture, ecology, and for receptive readers, its most mysterious denizen.”—Jon Foro, Amazon Book Review“In seeking to discover Bigfoot, Zada uncovers a different story, one that’s about all of us . . . [In the Valleys of the Noble Beyond] belongs among the travel memoirs. It’s literature.”—Oklahoman“For lovers of nature writing who also definitely want to know about the Sasquatch (so, everyone).”—Emily Temple, Literary Hub“Zada writes engagingly in the tradition of the best travel writers with genuine feeling for this anachronistic humanoid symbol of the lost world.”—Fortean Times“Bigfoot lives—maybe, as this X-Files-worthy tale reveals . . . Traveling deep into the old-growth forests of British Columbia, [Zada] had a look for himself, and it’s not too much of a spoiler to say that he adds to the seen/unproven inventory . . . Believe or don’t, the author writes nimbly and well, and his story is modest and evenhanded even as he lets us know just where he stands. An entertaining, provocative exercise in cryptozoology.”—Kirkus Reviews“In this fascinating nature narrative, freelance writer Zada searches for evidence of Bigfoot in the forests of the Pacific Northwest . . . Zada relates his adventures, including his encounters with bears, along with his observations into the collective unconscious of humans and how brains construct reality . . . Zada’s fun, well-written travelogue will interest environmentalists and armchair adventurers alike.”—Publishers Weekly“Zada strikes an engaging balance between curiosity and skepticism, letting the locals’ convincing stories speak for themselves while probing the science behind misperceptions and cultural beliefs. While fringe-watchers will relish Zada’s Sasquatch research, nature buffs will also enjoy his lush descriptions of the Canadian Pacific Northwest wilderness.”—Booklist“John Zada is one of those rare writers who conjures spellbinding prose through an acute sense of nature’s significance and the mythologies we all inhabit. A profound debut.”—Robert Twigger, author of White Mountain: A Cultural Adventure through the Himalayas and Red Nile: A Biography of the World’s Greatest River“In the world of travel writing there are two kinds of author. The first writes from the outside in, at best only scratching the surface of the lands through which they travel. The second kind of author writes in a profound and elegant way, the narrative charged with humility—observed from the inside out. John Zada is an author of the second approach—from the school of master travel writers. His prose is an utter delight, and his observances are shrewd and often extraordinary. But most of all, Zada has the ability to suck readers in deep, so that they’re right there with him on the trail of the Sasquatch. I recommend In the Valleys of the Noble Beyond more highly than any other travel book I have read in years. With time it will become a classic, and Zada will be recognized as the foremost chronicler of what is surely one of the most beguiling preserves in all adventure.”—Tahir Shah, author of In Arabian Nights and The Caliph’s House“Finally a truly talented writer approaches a subject matter that has been otherwise relegated to a cultural punchline thanks to, primarily, reality television. John Zada’s quest for this holy grail and his compulsion for emotional narrative is nothing less than a modern-day mythical journey; and he shares it with us in a perfect blend of poetic prose and creative story-telling. I took this journey myself when I began producing ten documentary films on the subject of Bigfoot and John completely captures the essence of what you experience: the landscape first, followed by the people and their rich culture, and finally the human mind as it tries to make sense of what might be the world's most bewildering phenomenon. Only after that journey is completed, as John did, does one finally meet the creature itself.”—Survivorman Les Stroud“A fascinating and unique account of the Bigfoot phenomenon that is equal parts memoir, psychology, travelogue, cultural commentary and manifesto on nature. Totally gripping and unputdownable. Destined to be a classic of adventure and a standout among the more conventional works on the Sasquatch.”—Jason Webster, author of A Death in Valencia

Since the middle of the last century it indicates a mysterious giant primate of North America, who is also called Sasquatch. The Russian vision of this research is distinguished by at least three peculiarities: it is based on the combined evidence regarding these primates; it regards these humanlike beings as relict hominids (hominins by latest primate classification), i.e., the closest relatives of modern man, Homo sapiens; and it firmly takes the existence of these still enigmatic bipeds for a biological fact, not a popular myth or a scientific hypothesis. The purpose of the book is to substantiate these views and claims. The main philosophic question posed by it: What is it to be human?

Inner Traditions Bear and Company Tom Sawyer: A Modern-Day Messenger from God: His
Book Synopsis• Shares Tom’s profound teachings on life, death, and unconditional love gained through his near-death experiences and direct encounter with the Light • Includes more than 160 true and remarkable stories about Tom completing his mission to spread God’s Unconditional Love • Details Tom’s death experiences and how in 2007, when he felt he had fulfilled his mission from God, he consciously left life on Earth In the early evening of May 23, 1978, while making repairs under his pick-up truck full of firewood, the heavy truck crashed down on Tom Sawyer, crushing his chest flat. A 33-year-old Olympic-trained bike racer and mechanic, Tom was clinically dead. Fifteen minutes later, he came back to life, recounting his strange experience of going through a tunnel, having his life review, and meeting the Light. Spiritually energized by this experience and endowed with supernatural abilities, Tom demonstrated repeatedly that the reality we believe in is an illusion, that walls are not necessarily barriers, severe health challenges can be healed in a moment, and it is possible to walk on water. During his death experience, Tom was charged by God with a three-part mission: teach that death does not exist, prevent nuclear war, and promote the Order of Melchizedek, in which he became a highly respected teacher. Through more than 160 remarkable stories, Rev. Daniel Chesbro and Rev. James B. Erickson share Tom’s profound and enlightening insights on life, death, and Unconditional Love. The most complete and in-depth account of the life and teachings of Tom Sawyer, this book reveals Tom as a modern-day messenger of God who returned to life a powerful conduit of Unconditional Love, compelled to create positive change for humanity.Trade Review“It is a privilege to take an inside look at one of the most unique prophets of our time. Chesbro’s personal, long-time friendship with Tom Sawyer offers a glimpse into the mind and supernatural abilities of this Christ-like individual. The life and times of a modern-day saint is a spiritual journey for the reader. Whether it’s bilocation, meditating on the Ganges River, or healing a terminal patient, Tom truly was a gift from God. The reader will travel into another dimension of time and space via the amazing adventures of Tom Sawyer and Dan Chesbro.” * Mary Grace, parapsychologist, spiritual teacher, and author of The Communion of Saints *“Over the past decade I have had the privilege of sitting at the feet of Rev. Chesbro as he would teach us and tell us the inspiring stories about the wonderful first-hand experiences he had witnessed with Tom Sawyer. I am so happy that he has finally put together this book of more than 160 true stories to enlighten and to inspire anyone who reads them. I highly recommend them to you! This is a book about modern-day miracles.” * Rev. Gary Nobuo Niki, author of D.I.Y. ZEN and the Art of Gentle Emotional Transformation *“This book is a great gift to humanity. Those who read it will learn the power of choosing ‘love and creativity against a backdrop of greed and ego.’ These stories about Tom Sawyer can open a path to increased hope, healing, peace, prosperity, and joy at this time in the world. I hope you will feel as blessed reading it as I did.” * Rev. Marta D. Ockuly, Ph.D., humanistic psychologist, educator, researcher, and CEO of Creative Pote *“Rev. Chesbro and Rev. Erickson have collaborated to present a compelling and easy-to-read narrative of what one person did to positively affect so many others and even the entire world. I found myself drawn in and continually delighted to learn how Thomas Joseph Sawyer was tuned in to the contract he had on Earth with the Creator and how he followed the guidance that he intuited. Sawyer demonstrated that death doesn’t exist, prevented nuclear war on numerous occasions, and served as a bridge between the Age of Pisces and the Age of Aquarius. This exploration of the life of Thomas Joseph Sawyer is among the best.” * Jerry J.
