With the same extraordinary skill that he used to demystify scientific abstraction and
the new physics, Gary Zukav, the award-winning author of The Dancing Wu Li Masters,
here takes us on a brilliant and penetrating exploration of the new phase of evolution we
have now entered.
With lucidity and elegance, Zukav explains that we are evolving from a species that
pursues power based upon the perceptions of the five senses -- external power -- into a
species that pursues authentic power -- power that is based upon the perceptions and
values of the spirit. He shows how the pursuit of external power has produced our
survival-of-the-fittest understanding of evolution, generated conflict between lovers,
communities, and superpowers, and brought us to the edge of destruction.
Using his scientist's eye and philosopher's heart, Zukav shows how infusing the
activities of life with reverence, compassion, and trust makes them come alive with
meaning and purpose. He illustrates how the emerging values of the spirit are changing
marriages into spiritual partnerships, psychology into spiritual psychology, and
transforming our everyday lives. The Seat of the Soul describes the remarkable journey to
the spirit that each of us is on.

A remarkable treatment of thought, evolution, and reincarnation.

Filled with wisdom, and written in a beautifully simple, almost poetic style, The Seat of
the Soul is a book to be savored.
Huston Smith, Ph.D. former professor of philosophy, MIT, author of The Religions of Man
How remarkable -- to find that one of our finest interpreters of frontier science is
equally conversant with the human spirit. This augurs well for our times.
