Joscelyn Godwin
The seven vowels, which we use everyday in speech, are truly mysterious things. Analysis shows that vowels depend on the phenomenon of harmonics, which is at the very basis of music, while our sensitivity to them proves that the human ear is naturally attuned to harmony. When we hear vowels, we are hearing the laws of harmony, which are, ultimately, mathematical laws that are said to govern the universe. In this first book to appear on the subject in English, Godwin shows how the vowels relate to music and harmony, esoteric and occult philosophy, healing, colour and meditation, and astrology. The final chapter contains seven vocal exercises for discovering one’s own tones and their power to centre, uplift and heal.

Stanley Siegel
Stanley Siegel challenges conventional therapeutic thinking with an unusual approach: instead of trying to "fix" clients, he encourages them to appreciate their own adaptive ingenuity. In the process, something remarkable almost always happens -- as in the case of the couple who solved their conflict only after literally building a wall within their home. These dozen stories demonstrate Siegel's convictions that the therapist has as much to learn as the patient, and that real healing is possible only when the healer truly respects his or her patients.
