   Book Review



Dr. John Davis has a great deal of experience in teaching and working with students in the Diamond Approach, and it is clear that he puts it to good use in the present book. The result is a very clear, detailed, but simple overview of the Diamond Approach, written by one who knows the subject matter both intellectually and experientially. Dr. Davis has rendered a great service here, both to the Diamond Approach and to the many readers who want a fresh look at the human potential and its spiritual dimensions.


(--Sherry Ruth Anderson, author of The Feminine Face of God and The Cultural Creatives)
John Davis's remarkably clear introduction to the pioneering insights of A. H. Almaas is a joy to read. The exposition sparkles! In a generous, approachable voice, Davis begins with a personal story and then guides the reader through the key elements of the Diamond Approach, weaving in substantial excerpts from Almaas own writings. This is the first book to bring the main ideas of the Diamond Approach together in one place. This makes it an invaluable resource for every serious student of consciousness and psychology. The surprise is that this resource is delectable, a juicy morsel that engages the mind and the heart of the reader. Its at the top of my recommended reading this year.(--Sherry Ruth Anderson (author of The Feminine Face of God and The Cultural Creatives))


(--Jack Kornfield, author of A Path with Heart, coauthor of Seeking the Heart of Wisdom)
The work of A. H. Almaas places him among the greatest psychologists alive today. His brilliant vision of the human psyche embraces our Being from early development to the highest realms of spirit. From this he then offers a new language and direct approach for awakening to this manifold nature. This excellent book gives the first overall view of the major dimensions of the Diamond Approach. In it John Davis does true credit to the importance of this work.(--Jack Kornfield (author of A Path with Heart, coauthor of Seeking the Heart of Wisdom))
