Principles and Practice of Environmental Medicine

1 review

Springer, 1992

Great reference book!
This book has been extremely valuable to me ever since I began working as a hazardous waste epidemiologist. When people ask me questions about environmental health that fall outside my area of personal expertise, it is the first book that I check as a reference. It is getting a little old, however, and I had logged on to see if by chance there was a more up to date edition. Nonetheless, despite ...

The Spiritual Emerson: Essential Works by Ralph Waldo Emerson (Tarcher Cornerstone Editions)

Ralph Waldo Emerson

Tarcher, 2008

A Must Read For Our Times
I purchased this book because Jacob Needleman had written the foreword. However, after reading it, I think it is an important to be read at this time. The first section, Self-Reliance, is worth the price alone. Emerson points out the need for each of us to rely not on government or others for our needs, but through ourselves first by finding our inner self and using it to go forward. After you ...

The Kybalion (Tarcher Cornerstone Editions)

Three Initiates

The Connecting Pieces
As a teacher of the mysteries I always offer a list of suggested reading for the seekers attending the workshops. The Kybalion is always near if not actually the top of the list but I've never had an ISBN for the book since my copy is a 1908 original. In preparing my workshop on Transmutation and Change I decided to search for one of the more current editions of the book to have a standard book ...

Jacob Needleman

Tarcher, 2009

Fascinating, and Helpful
Forty years after first publication, Needleman's book still provides wise insights on the attraction of new religions and religious movements for seekers in the West. I just read this new Tarcher Cornerstone edition (the first time I have ever read the entire book) and it confirmed my own experience with religions and spirituality over the same period. Beginning in the 60s, many teens and ...

The Essential Marcus Aurelius (Tarcher Cornerstone Editions)

Jacob Needleman, John Piazza

Tarcher, 2008

Read this book with a highlighter
This book is a lot of short anecdotes about life and living. It is a fast read, but this does not make it trite. On the contrary each short group of sentences really gets at the core of being human and the internal struggles we all go through.

Edgar Cayce's ESP: Who He Was, What He Said, and How it Came True (Tarcher Lives of the Masters)
Kevin J. Todeschi

Tarcher, 2008

One of the most remarkable stories of the twentieth century about one of the most incredible men who ever lived: Edgar Cayce, a Kentucky farm boy whose psychic powers healed thousands, touched countless lives, and inspired the dawn of the New Age . For more than forty years, Edgar Cayce (1877?1945), the ?sleeping prophet,? regularly exhibited an astonishing psychic ability. From an altered state, he was able to read minds and souls, diagnose ...

The Aquarian Conspiracy: Personal and Social Transformation in Our Time (The Tarcher Cornerstone)
Marilyn Ferguson

Tarcher, 2009

Now reset and redesigned in a compact volume, here is the human potential masterwork that defined the New Age. Called "an exciting vision of the future" (Cleveland Plain Dealer ) and "a handbook of the New Age" ( USA Today ) upon its initial publication in 1980, The Aquarian Conspiracy is a breathtaking, compelling study of the changes in work, relationships, medicine, religion, and education that comprised the birth of the New Age.

Buddha: His Life and His Teaching (Tarcher Lives of the Masters)

Walter Henry Nelson

Tarcher, 2008

Great Introduction to the life of Siddartha Gotama, the Buddha
This is a book that a person could read in a few hours or so, but it sticks with you. Walter Henry Nelson does a really nice job of keeping you hooked on the storyline. You read about Siddartha (the Buddha) and how he was conceived supernaturally in his mother Maya. His birth was heralded by prophets who foretold a glorious life. Siddartha is sheltered by his dad, who would rather see his son ...

Tao Te Ching: The New Translation from Tao Te Ching: The Definitive Edition (Tarcher Cornerstone Editions)

Lao Tzu

Tarcher, 2008

Very modern and insightful
I've pondered many English translations of this text, and it's always good to consult them, but this one is a modern take that seems to give a clear and insightful rendering, while still maintaining the poetic and mysterious simplicity of the original text. I am a Taoist, though probably not the kind you'd find described somewhere in an encyclopedia. Take the teachings of the Sages (Lao Tzu, ...

Better watch out right here. I have read a whole bunch of books in my life, and this one can Change Your Life! Read it, mark the particular lines that speak to you, type those out and MEMORIZE them. Then repeat your list aloud every day until they become part of who you are. Then, my friend, you will be well on the way to becoming who your were designed to be. Overstated? Exaggerated? You ...
