The Souvenir: A Daughter Discovers Her Father's War
18 reviews
Louise Steinman
North Atlantic Books, 2008
AN EXCELLENT READ AND A WORK VERY WELL DONE!
Like so many in my generation, the author, like the rest of us, really had no clue as to what made her father tick. These men, and women, of the "Greatest Generation" were a different breed. I had to blink twice when the author described her father, his attitudes, work ethic, treatment of his family and on and on. She could have well been describing my own father. The author, after her ...
Aikido Exercises for Teaching and Training

C. M. Shifflett
North Atlantic Books, 2000
This should be your first Aikido book
This is an excellent book for people new to Aikido or even people who just want to know a bit about Aikido. It would also be of value to teachers of Aikido (which would include senior students who need to work with beginners). The book is well written and is packed full of amusing and insightful quotes (and longer pieces) from other Aikodokas (students of Aikido). A brief table of contents: ...
The Cosmos of Soul: A Wake-Up Call for Humanity

North Atlantic Books, 2010
The most important books I've ever read
To those of you contemplating whether or not to buy this book, or better still, the entire Trilogy.... Run, do not walk, to grab your credit card and order these books. For nearly 30 years, I've been seeking and (hopefully) learning. Along the way, dozens and dozens of spiritual, self-help, alternative thought and "conspiracy" books have been digested. Never, I repeat, never, have I ...
The Book of Herbal Wisdom: Using Plants as Medicines

Matthew Wood
North Atlantic Books, 1997
This is a fantastic book!
The author is very knowledgeable and gives a thorough background of each herb that he describes. He includes a lot of scientific information, as well as more mystical/spiritual and historical uses of each herbs, giving the book a nice balance. It was recommended to me by a fabulous herbalist and naturopath, and I must say that I'm very glad I listened to her advice as it's one of the best herb ...

Kaleo Ching

Elise Dirlam Ching
North Atlantic Books, 2006
Self as resource of inspiration to create art
Kaleo and Elise write very clearly and carefullly so that one can approach this very personal process from many directions. This book makes it assesable for almost anyone. It is also written so that, while going deep within, during your process of becoming inspired, the actual process of creating, remains a sacred activity. Perhaps most importantly, Kaleo and Elise maintain the element of fun ...
Natural Treatments for Tics and Tourette's: A Patient and Family Guide

Sheila Rogers
North Atlantic Books, 2008
good information
This book is worth the money for me. My son has had mild tics since he was a young child. I wish I had the knowledge back then that I have today about food additives and allergy foods, but I didn't. He is now in his mid 20 and the tics have increased and gotten worse. This book caught my eye bacause I know, now, how food affects us, both mentally and physically. My 90 year old uncle was told ...

Patricia Cori
North Atlantic Books, 2009
PHAROAH'S WILD RIDE!
Patricia Cori is a Master! I have never been so moved to visit the sacred sites as I was after reading her book "Where Pharoah's Dwell". Her words are truth, spoken directly from the Sirian High Council. Her connection to other realms is palpable. Her experiences so mirror mine that I had to meet her.... and I can say that experiencing her sacred journey to Egypt was beyond the wildest ...
The Little Capoeira Book

Nestor Capoeira
North Atlantic Books, 2003
Very nice book.
I'll be perfectly honest. With my short attention span I have at times, I havn't done much in the way of practicing through the use of this book. But what I have practiced using it, I was able to figure out easily thanks to the diagrams and explanations in it. This book was also able to make me hold the interest I first had in Capoeria before finding it with the additional sections that talk ...

North Atlantic Books, 2010
I LOVED IT
After reading many many books and listening to many speakers,this book more than any other source satisfies my quest for the 'reason why we are here' more than any other. I have read it twice, have given away copies and recommend it highly. My daughter was very impressed with it as well.

Maggie Phillips

The title reflects the offerings of this book.
I am a trauma therapist. I have this book in my library and I also recommend it to clients. Maggie Phillips is one of the foremost experts on the subject of chronic pain. She presents her material in a compassionate and concise way. All methods don't work for every person but there are enough options in this book that you can most likely find something to ease the pain. I have had clients ...

Dale Pendell
North Atlantic Books, 2010
Get the whole series!
I've read a lot of books on herbalism, but this series of books is a unique and extremely valuable find. Dale Pendell covers a wide variety of herbs and their affects on the human mind, body and spirit. What makes his book different from others is the poetic way in which he conveys his information. It makes reading the books far from dull or dry, and some herbal books read like medical textbooks ...
The Essence of T'ai Chi Ch'uan: The Literary Tradition

Various
North Atlantic Books, 1993
A great resoource for advanced students.
After 10 years of Tai Chi Chuan practice advanced books like this are becoming a valuable resource. Until you understand chi flow, rooting, adhering, following, and the myriad of other terms that describe the fundamental elements of the art, much of the book may come across as esoteric. A respected elder in the art once told me that the 'classics' will not lead you astray. The trick is to find ...
Facets of a Diamond: Reflections of a Healer
13 reviews
John Diamond
North Atlantic Books, 2002
An inspiring collection
In the past, Dr. Diamond has on the whole confined himself to one major area of interest in each of his books. In the Life Energy in Music series he focuses on various aspects of music, The Healer: Heart and Hearth is concerned mainly with the role of the therapist or healer, Re-Mothering and its Experience examines the importance of our relationships with our mothers, and so on. In Facets of a ...

David Weinstock
North Atlantic Books, 2010
What a gift!
In his book "NeuroKinetic Therapy," David Weinstock presents us with an invaluable resource for understanding his technique of body work, and therefore a greater understanding of the human body itself. The information is presented in a way that is very easy to follow, complete with informative pictures to guide the practitioner. As a chiropractor myself, I feel his book is truly a must read for ...
The Earthwise Herbal: A Complete Guide to Old World Medicinal Plants

Matthew Wood
North Atlantic Books, 2008
Everyone should have it!
This book and its companion volume should be in everyone's natural health library. The way the books are set up make it easy to find an herbal remedy by name, or by the condition you are dealing with. Also tells you the best way to take it, and which form is most helpful for specific conditions. Additionally, Matthew explains a bit of the historical use of each herb. Really, I don't think ...

This is a really fascinating read which presents the views of various contemporary practitioners and teachers of the Chinese neijia (internal schools). Each chapter provides valuable insight into the true nature of these unique arts and gives you plenty of food for thought. If you practice an internal form of Chinese martial arts, you need this book-
Blazing Splendor: The Memoirs of Tulku Urgyen Rinpoche

Tulku Urgyen Rinpoche
North Atlantic Books, 2005
Packed with beautiful stories and full of ambience
I'm thoroughly enjoying this book! It is full of beautiful stories about the lifestyle and people of the intense Buddhist spiritual culture in Tibet in the last century. So many anecdotes bring the whole scene to life. The flavor of that whole world comes through so clearly. I'm not a Nyingma practitioner - so I'm not talking as a devoted student per se - but it's such a rich read and I'd ...

Nothing in This Book Is True, But It's Exactly How Things Are, 15th Anniversary
14 reviews
North Atlantic Books, 2010
Astonishing and Crucial Spiritual Information
This incredible book was revolutionary when it first appeared, but Frissell's information in the new edition is if anything even more amazing. Be warned - this is very far-out stuff - but if you have an open mind and want to read what virtually no one else (except, of course, one of Frissell's sources, Drunvalo Melchizedek) prepare to have a fascinating experience. Very highly recommended.
