One of the best book on dowsing for health!
This book is for you if you are interested in dowsing especially for health issues
as well as to find energy patterns of human beings and earth.

You will find a good base of information on how to start to dowse with a pendulum, and some sections
will explain how to work with dowsing rods, especially helpful in case of searching for energy lines.
Included in the book are 3 or 4 charts, and also an explanation on how to do blind dowsing (which
can be really helpful in health related topics).

The book covers a wide range of information about dowsing, but what makes his entire value
is all the information contained beside. Information about the state of mind of the individual,
the diet, vitamins and minerals, allergies, aromatherapy, flower essences, the life path,
channeling healing energy, the subtle body and the chakras, the role of the spine hands and feet,
absent healing, earth energie and the spirit of place, and the power centers are just to name some of the few
interesting topics covered in the book.

The author of the book, Patrick MacManaway, is a professional dowser with an international practice and reputation. He is a Vice-President of the Society
of british dowser.

This book is the best i have read on the mental side of golf
This book covers everything from building a mental and physical routine to concentration, relaxation, confidence, visualization and the conversations we have with ourselves on and off the golf course -- that affect performance. I've been able to apply these thoughtful recommendations off the golf course as well. This is a book for both life and golf. It is beautifully illustrated too. Outstanding!

a great mix of fiction and non-fiction
This book is a wonderful mix of fiction and non-fiction stories. The stories are so well written, the reader is unsure which is which. There is also a blend in some of the stories of both types of story. If anyone can find this book, read it and see for yourself. You will never get rid of it.

Comments on "A Parliament of Minds"
"A Parliament of Minds: Philosophy for a New Millenium," provides a wonderfully speculative endeavor into the universality, of the timeless tradition of philosophy. Conducted in the medium of informal interviews, twenty-three of the world's most notorious contemporary thinkers, identify there own interpretations of philosophy and it's role as humankind concludes yet another millenium. For too long, the average conception of philosophy that has passed through the streets, is that of a detached, lofty and abstract discipline that can not breathe outside of the "ivory towers" that it has confined itself to. In other words, philosophy has gone for too long without a human face. Having said that, it is apparent that such a long over-do journey too "demystify" and "humanize" philosophy is an uphill climb, however, how better to facilitate such a transition then by capturing the philosophies of a diverse range of today's leading philosophers and social thinkers? A wide variety of approaches are documented in "A Parliament..," including political philosophy, classical and ancient philosophy, feminist philosophy, Eastern, African and Islamic philosophies, environmental philosophy, aesthetics and much more, all being analyzed in a uniquley applied manner. Aside from the books easy accesibility to the philosophical novice, it likewise can provide a stimulating read for the philosophical or socially aware academic, in that it probes the depths of philosophy's duty in a seemingly collapsing world and inspires us to turn the scope of philosophy away from hair-splitting problems relevant only to itself and back in the direction of humanity, which is after all it's origins. I highly recommend this book to anyone out there in the information age, who still cares about how they should live their life.

Expanding Knowledge
This book is one of many products created by the genius of G. Patrick Flanagan for the betterment of the human race, the expansion of our awareness. It is laid out in a context of terse sayings for easy grasp and memory banking, begins by referring to the myriad approaches to total knowledge we've held onto through language and philosophy and scientific analysis and exploration throughout the ages. After one reading the mind has increased in its capacity to understand and intuit real knowledge. Patrick takes the reader step by step to his final conclusions via scientifically supported objective reasoning including photographs and diagrams. He transmits his own intelligence via the choice of language and ideas he focuses on--it warrents many readings or keeping for reference!

Most positive impact of any game improvement method.
If you're willing to work at it, just a little, this book on tape will give you a positive method for developing great mental attitude and a chance to eliminate negative, destructive thoughts that injure your game.

My pro always said I wasn't an 18, but an average of a 9 and a 27. By applying Cohn's principals my handicap dropped from 17 to 12 in six weeks. And I hope to go further.

A truly inspirational book
The Golden Rule is a wonderful, inspirational book that everyone should read. I found myself thinking about different aspects of my life and what I want to change. Elaine Parke's book has given me the motivation to finally do the things that I want to do and be the person I want to be.

Tried to Reach Larry
I read the twice entered review of Larry Ferrguson. As the author who spent 10 years researching the information provided in Join the Golden Rule Revolution and who lives near Ellwood City, I tried to reach Mr.Ferrguson to discuss his entry. I found no listing for such a person in the Ellwood City phone book.

I want to share with potential book buyers that the design of this book is already PROVEN as a method that can help us improve our good habits. Our non-profit public school program, based on the same monthly habit-building strategy as my book, Join the Golden Rule Revolution, is currently serving 5,600 students in the greater Pittsburgh Region. Results of this habit-building program in its pilot test school increased the student honor roll by 18%, doubled the number of students doing homework regularly, and reduced detentions and suspensions by 25% after a 93% rise. Below is the letter from the principal of this school, which is excerpted from the Forward of the book.

FORWARD

Melvin H. Steals, Ph.D.

Before the good fortune that brought Elaine Parke into my middle school building, it was one of the most violent and lowest performing middle schools in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. No one, including this principal, was safe from physical assault. This was due in no small part to the pervasion of a pernicious street culture and the widespread belief among the students that few of their teachers truly cared about them. It was at this point that Elaine appeared upon the scene.

The adjective that best describes the effect that she engendered is angelic. She unleashed a powerful tidal wave of positive emotion within our midst that we had never before experienced. In short, her Caring Habit of the Month Adventure program not only had a profoundly positive impact upon the feeling tone within the building, it also caused everyone who came into our school to be more caring about each other.

In closing, I have seen firsthand and personally experienced the chaos that has invaded many of our nation's schools. Elaine Parke's clearly defined prescriptions for positive change significantly reduced the fear that used to make learning so difficult within my former middle school.

I would highly recommend her book, The GOLDEN RULE REVOLUTION to everyone, and her Caring Habit of the Month Adventure program to any school district that has any concerns about operating a safe and orderly learning environment.

Yours Truly, Melvin H. Steals, Ph.D. Middle School Principal

Join the Golden Rule Revolution
Finally, an inspirational book for ALL ages. I own and operate a family daycare home, and I have been reading each days "habit" to my school-age kids. It has stimulated some great discussions. We also spend the rest of the day practicing each "habit". I must confess, I just had to read ahead! Definitely a keeper, to read and reread.
