True conversation is an interpenetration of worlds, a genuine
intercourse of souls, which doesn't have to be self-consciously profound but
does have to touch matters of concern to the soul. ~ Thomas Moore, 1940- ~

Prescriptions Reviews “Painstakingly compiled, accessibly organized, and expertly edited ... A welcome reference for personal, seminary, academic, and community library 'Religion, Spirituality, and Metaphysical Studies' collections, Wisdom for the Soul is very strongly recommended for readers searching for encouraging and empathetic words of wisdom for the conduct and improvement of their lives.” “A must-have title for all spiritual seekers. This volume is incredible in scope, superbly edited and beautifully designed. Highly recommended.” “The book's excellent liner notes on the back cover do much to draw the reader in, promising thoughtful advice and direction on nearly every subject one could imagine. The detailed Table of Contents, in this case labeled "Table of Subjects" is well composed and thus quite useful in a book of this length. Likewise the index, which allows readers to search the lengthy text for a particular author. Much of the chosen material is unfamiliar (at least to this reader), and thus a fresh read in what is a terribly crowded field. Overall, this is a very solid effort and surely one of the most comprehensive of its genre ever written.” |
