books by Ken Wilber     books:       Holographic Paradigm2 reviews Ken Wilber Shambhala, 1982 A wonderful survey of holographic theory of consciousness A truly diverse and informational work, including essays from such important theorists as physicist Bohm and neuroscientist Pribram. About the holographic theory of consciousness: just as a small portion of a hologram will display the characteristics of the whole image, so does individual human consciousness contain information about the "whole" Kosmos (this is actually known as the ...             The Collected Works of Ken Wilber, Volume 63 reviews Ken Wilber Shambhala, 2000 Best comprehensive volume of Wilber's work As another reviewer suggests, this is indeed an extremely ambitious work. Wilber's life's work is exceedingly ambitious, and this volume is the most comprehensive and the most demanding single volume he has yet published First, I will say to the KW book shopper, this is not the best of his works to start with, in my opinion. Even for the serious reader, I would recommend "ramping up" to this book ...             No Boundary: An Illuminating Overview of Eastern and Western Approaches to Personal Growth (Whole mind series)2 reviews Ken Wilber Great Eastern Book Co, 1979 Best Book I Ever Read I think this is the best book I've ever read (mainly speaking of non-fiction). Mr. Wilber explores, explains and eliminates all the illusory boundaries that we humans create, both within ourselves and between ourselves and the "rest of" the universe. Have trouble understanding the concept of "oneness"? Ken describes the whole concept in ways I've never forgotten (I read the book about 16 ...             Transformation of Consciousness: Conventional and Contemplative Perspectives on Development4 reviews Jack Engler, Daniel Brown, ... Shambhala Publications Inc, 2007 Finally!!! Where have the thoughts in this book been for so long??? Transformations of Consciousness thinks critically about issue's in psychology and spirituality that are so important and would seem so obvious, I wonder how they've managed to escape us all so completely. Primarily, this text brings attention and profoundly questions the motives of the psychological as well as contemplative schools in ...             Up from Eden8 reviews Ken Wilber Shambhala, 1983 The Painful History of Mankind- and a way Beyond... After the success of his initial works (The Spectrum of Consciousness and No Boundary), Ken Wilber gave his "spectrum" model a serious reappraisal and found it woefully lacking. It seemed that he had made a mistake that he goes on to chide others for in his later books- he confused prerational myths with transcendental truths, and confused the spiritual fall with the scientific fall. He makes ...             The Practice of Lojong: Cultivating Compassion through Training the Mind4 reviews Traleg Kyabgon Shambhala, 2007 excellent This is an excellent presentation of an important aspect of Buddhism. Well written as well.             No Boundary28 reviews Ken Wilber Shambhala, 1981 At last, the answer to "who am I?" As an enthusiastic and voracious reader of books on consciousness, psychology, philosophy and the metaphysical, I have to say this was the most concise, clear and complete explanation of the universe, the self, and, well, everything, that I have ever happened across. As he says, there is no new material here, only yet another repackaging of what many have been saying for thousands of years, but ...             Collected Works of Ken Wilber : Integral Psychology, Transformations of Consciousness, Selected Essays2 reviews Ken Wilber Shambhala, 1999 Excellent new book, plus a whole lot of great essays Volume four of the Collected Works is critical reading material for any serious Ken Wilber student. It contains his contributions to the _Transformations of Consciousness_ book, his introduction to _The Holographic Paradigm_ (but not the ReVision interview found in that book), as well as a new book, _Integral Psychology_, which will be released individually in April 2000. The real meat of ...             Ken Wilber: Thought As Passion (Suny Series in Transpersonal and Humanistic Pyschology)9 reviews Frank Visser State University of New York Press, 2003 Making Ken Wilber Assessible March 04, 2004 If you want a well researched, thorough overview of the work of Ken Wilber, then Frank Visser's Ken Wilber: Thought as Passion is a great choice. It covers a broad scope and is a relatively easy read. That's the short version. The long version must take into account Wilber's five periods or models to date. Visser's book nicely introduces the first four periods in a general way, and ...             Sacred Mirrors: The Visionary Art of Alex Grey34 reviews Alex Grey Inner Traditions, 1990 Sacred Mirrors Art This book is %95 pictures and the rest is just explanation of the artist's concept. The paintings are so detailed and keeps you entertained. This book makes a good addition to an art book collection. Grey's painting technique is very good, he draws human figures that show their veins, muscles and energy. Every piece is similar to the others but have a unique look. Worth buying.             Meditation (Whole Way Library)1 review Michal Levin Dorling Kindersley Publishers Ltd, 2002 Inspiring and attractive layout I love this book as this is my first book to attempt meditation, the photos and colours and the rundown are so interrelated and bring a good simple track to go on to meditation.

A third word, "spiritual," deals with something else altogether. In our modern world, we seem to be witnessing ...             La Conciencia Sin Fronteras (Spanish Edition)1 review Ken Wilber Troquel Editorial, 1992 Excelente Indispensable para comprender la evolución de la consciencia en el hombre, explicado de forma lúcida, contemporánea, con profundidad y sencillez al mismo tiempo, algo difícil de lograr.             La pura conciencia de ser1 review Ken Wilber Editorial Kairos, 2007 Excelente, excepcional Preciosa selección de textos de Wilber, acerca del espíritu y la forma, 'si entiendes esto, descansa en lo que entiendes, eso es el Espíritu, si no entiendes esto, descansa en lo que no entiendes, eso es el Espíritu', sublime lectura que permite comprender el error de la identidad separada y acercarse a descansar en lo que es.             A Greater Psychology : An Introduction to the Psychological Thought of Sri Aurobindo1 review Ken Wilber, Sri Aurobindo, ..., 2001 A Profound, Comprehensive Intro to the Human Condition Last summer, I stumbled across a Pema Chodron book. Thus, by serendipity, began my love affair with Buddhism and Eastern philosophy. Chodron's books are notoriously soothing and easy to read, perfect fodder for a blossoming Buddhist neophyte. Intuitively, I understood and experienced the healing power of the Buddhist outlook. It wasn't long before I graduated to more challenging material. I ...             A Sociable God2 reviews Ken Wilber Mcgraw-Hill, 1982 A Sociable God - a new understanding of religion A Sociable God - Ken Wilber Ken Wilber has been described as one of the greatest American philosophers of our times, a visionary genius and the Einstein of consciousness research. He has written almost two dozen works and counts Al Gore among a host of admirers. 'A Sociable God', originally published in 1983 (and re-issued in 2005) was the sixth book from this prolific author. Wilber, in a ...             Collected Works of Ken Wilber, Volume 31 review Ken Wilber Shambhala, 1999 Two lesser-known Wilber classics This volume contains two different, but related, works by Ken Wilber. The first, "A Sociable God," proposes a methodology by which the discipline of sociology can compare and categorize religions. Religion and spirituality are making something of a comeback in modern society from their previously purged status under the rationalist paradigm. This has taken many forms, ranging from fundamentalism ...             Up from Eden : The Atman Project (The Collected Works of Ken Wilber Series)1 review Ken Wilber Shambhala, 1999 Mind-blowing explorations of human evolution--and involution In the beginning, Spirit was only alone and blissful in infinite silent repose. In the formless purity of the Infinite there was nothing but empty clarity and radiance. There was nothing but a thoughtless, feelingless eternity of Love, and only one problem, one tiny problem: the Love wanted to share itself somehow. And then a current of creativity began to act, to set a pattern, to stretch ...             Scientific Proof of the Existence of God Will Soon Be Announced by the White House!2 reviews Da Free John Dawn Horse Press, 1980 required reading absolutely required reading for anyone interested in religion, contemporary media and culture, and what it means to be alive as a human being in the 21st century...             The Fabric of the Future: Women Visionaries Illuminate the Path to Tomorow1 review Patrice Wynne, Ken Wilber RedWheel / Weiser, 2008 Excellent Essays by Forward Thinking Women of our Time This book made me glad to be a woman.
