Customer Reviews

A man truly "In-Synch" with the world.

Walter Russell is one of my hero's. Champion ice skater, equestrian, sculptor...Russell excelled at everything he put his mind to. He said that "Mediocrity is self inflicted; Genius is self bestowed. The choice is yours." Buy this as an introduction to his laws of success and reap benefits for the rest of your life. Me thinks that this book should be required reading for all 7th or 8th graders in public schools.

This man was a Gift

A great little book about one of the greatest beings to walk this Earth. Thank you for your gifts of Truth Mr. Russell. Glenn Clark did this man well with his short bio. I recommend this book as a great intro about a wonderful humanitarian.

Inspiring

This very small, short book is written in a sensational style that usually turns me off, but the subject -- Walter Russell -- is so exceptional that I could not help but overlook it. This is a man who was an architect of a building still standing in New York city, yet he never went to school past the 8th grade. He sculpted the Mark Twain Memorial, though he never studied art. He even created the Co-op system for housing in New York (but later denounced it as politicians and real estate developers caused the system to degenerate into the state it's in now). I love to pass this book around to friends -- they always appreciate it. I highly recommend this introduction to his highly unusual experiences, philosophy, and unique relationship with the Universe.

Great Things Come in Small Packages

Despite its short length this little book is packed with useful and interesting information. You need to read it twice just to begin to take in the new concepts it presents. Walter Russell did a great deal for American Art & Science. He is one of the most understated men of history. May the knowledge of his accomplishments continue to grow and inspire.

Required reading for those seeking an enlightened life.

Walter Russell was one of those people who just "get" it, and fortunately for the rest of us, shares it freely. This fantastic little book packs a big punch. The philosophies stated go along with other greats such as Edgar Cayce and Jose Silva. They, also, had great faith and tapped into the universal conscience and spread that knowledge for the betterment of the world and its people. The world will truly be a heaven on earth when all people utilize these concepts. This book should be required school reading.
