The anniversary edition of this beloved bestseller is celebrated in Prefaces by Oprah Winfrey and Maya Angelou and contains a new Foreword by the author, website links, and a new Study Guide to help readers find even deeper meaning and fulfillment.
The Seat of the Soul encourages you become the authority in your own life. It will change the way you see the world, interact with other people, and understand your own actions and motivations. Beginning with evolution, Gary Zukav takes you on a penetrating exploration of the new phase humanity has entered: we are evolving from a species that understands power as the ability to manipulate and control—external power—into a species that understands power as the alignment of the personality with the soul—authentic power. Our evolution requires each of us to make the values of the soul our own: harmony, cooperation, sharing, and reverence for Life. Using his scientist's eye and philosopher's heart, Zukav shows us how to participate fully in this evolution, enlivening our everyday activities and all of our relationships with meaning and purpose.

The Seat of the Soul has sold millions of copies around the globe, and as it changes lives, more and more people begin to live by the values of the spirit. Indeed, a new world is emerging, and this book brings its message to you.

      ``A laser is like a whole personality,'' writes Zukav. In a sequel to The Dancing Wu Li Masters , this exponent of the spiritual side of the ``new physics'' goes beyond intriguing parallels. In gracefully written sermonettes with titles like ``Evolution,'' ``Light,'' ``Power'' and ``Addiction,'' he makes a bold attempt to fuse so-called New Age wisdom with modern psychology, science and sociopolitical reality. Zukav posits two types of people: the ``five-sensory human'' who puts mind over heart, lacks trust, plays power games and can't tap intuition is contrasted with the ``multisensory'' individual who seeks alignment of the soul with the personality. One section relates personal and national karma to the theory of Gaia, which holds that Earth is a single living entity with a soul. Though Zukav explores themes long familiar to astrologers and occultists, his high-minded synthesis is something more than old wine in a new bottle.

      Zukav, author of THE DANCING WU LI MASTERS, focuses his attention on the spiritual mission of mankind. He delves into the nature of humankind, their five physical senses, and their "multi-senses," or spiritual nature. Zukav cites Ghandi and Christ as examples of spirituality in this life, then describes various aspects of karma and reincarnation, including explanations of how one's soul defines this life and one's action. Griffith's quiet voice is reminiscent of a teacher or spiritual guide without having the ecstatic charisma of a preacher. In his soothing voice, Griffith lulls the listener into accepting the veracity of Zukav's theories. His narration solidly reflects the spirituality of Zukav's theories. M.B.K.

      John McDonough's rich baritone fills the listener with reverence as he presents Zukav's alternative perspective on the keys to good health and emotional well-being. Zukav explains the connection between the soul and daily interpersonal interactions. McDonough's narration captures the mystical quality of Zukav's theories for a healthier life. The measured pacing of McDonough's delivery, as well as his flowing sentences, allows the listeners ample time to take in the various details of medical history, cognitive theory, and spirituality that are discussed. His cadence is infused with sensitivity and calmness, which aid the listener in experiencing the restorative and soothing intentions of Zukav's text. M.R. (c) AudioFile 2008, Portland, Maine
