You could call this the perfect idiot's guide into transcendental meditation. The way Peter Russell breaks it down and uses simple language to describe the topic makes it easy for most anybody to understand. Mostly taking the scientific and mental aspect of the entire topic, it doesn't seem like it should bother even the most non spiritual person... because it isn't a spiritual technique which most people mistake it for. If you have heard of TM but don't have much information, and are thinking of pursueing it, this is a great book that will cover a great deal of what TM is, some of it's history, and what it can do for you.
Any thing less than the best is a waste of time

This is an investment for Life and an investment in Life. It relates to your total happiness, and securing the ground of your Being (see "Science of Being, Art of Living;MMY). If you are serious about finding lifes ancient Golden core, this book is a good, scientific, and reality based place to begin and end your search. There is no better technique than the method described in this book, and this reading is a great way to begin your interface to a deeper view of Reality. The other reviewer said to save money and buy a copy cat. I say save the money even if it takes a couple of years and get the real thing. I've been under the TM influence since 1971 and it gets better every year. Ask anyone on a rip off technique how long they've kept it up.
TM is excellent but too expensive

This book is good and TM is the most effective meditation technique out there, but if you want to learn TM you have to spend $2500! Fortunately a few independent teachers, such as Raymond Harrison or the TM Independent UK group, are teaching TM for a reasonable price.
