The author's painstaking research and attention to detail is obvious in the writing of this book. There were many facts that I only discovered after reading this!

I"m not sure how to review this. It's a series of essays on a wide range of topics that are sometimes philosophical, factual, and more. It's one person's perspective which is sometime interesting, but I struggle with what to do with those thoughts. This is my problem not the author's. He is obviously very smart and a deep thinker, which stretched me a little.

I really appreciate the NetGalley advanced copy for review!!

There is a phrase in this book that stood out for me, "Wells have water in them, but the water is not something the well creates or owns."
I could describe this book as philosophical, and even just trying to pin it down does not do it justice, because never before have I come across a book that explores consciousness, goodness and freedom. There is this belief that there are higher powers, a certain level that man has attained or resides in that sets us apart from all the other species...and in reading this book, John Lefebvre demystifies these misconceptions.
It's an engaging read and if you get your hands on it, I hope you love chapter four, "The Higher Trusts," as much as I did.
Thanks Netgalley for the eARC, this book is a great conversation generator.
