Críticas:

"Christian de Quincey is making a mark as one of the greatest metaphysical philosophers of our time. He has a great grasp of language and an expansive knowledge of the leading works and ideas in relevant fields. In this book, he explores how it becomes evident that Consciousness is primordial and an intrinsic aspect of the experienced reality that unfolds through the media of energy and information."--Jed Shlackman, reviewer, April 2009

"Besides suggesting changes in how we think and talk about events in consciousness (he really thrashes the common New Age formula that thoughts create reality), [de Quincey] puts forward some intriguing new notions."--Henry Reed, Venture Inward, Sept/Oct 2009

"This is the guide to consciousness that millions have been waiting for. In clear, nontechnical language, Christian de Quincey guides us through the labyrinth of the mind. This is one of the best books on consciousness to emerge in years."--Larry Dossey, M.D., author of Healing Words and The Power of Premonitions

"Christian de Quincey delivers a masterful synthesis of ancient wisdom and cutting-edge insight, a warm and rare work revealing the secrets of self-knowledge. Read and awaken to the wondrous potential of your human consciousness."--Obadiah Harris, president of the University of Philosophical Research

"The hard problem of consciousness has never been presented in an easier and more illuminating way. Christian de Quincey has achieved a miracle of popularization and has also broken new philosophical ground--and the combination is an even greater miracle."--Nicholas Humphrey, professor of psychology, London School of Economics, and author of Seeing Red: A

"A must-read for anyone who wants to know more about consciousness. Lucid and comprehensive, profound and inspiring. Christian de Quincey tackles the hard problems of mind head-on, offering deep insights into our essential nature."--Peter Russell, author of The Global Brain and From Science to God

"Writing for the layperson, Christian de Quincey makes you think about consciousness in a new way."--EnlightenNext, Issue 44, Jun-Aug 2009

"Following the concepts found in this book, you will be able to recognize and break habits and patterns that run or even ruin your life."--Sonia von Matt Stoddard, Awareness, Vol. 16, No. 6, Nov/Dec 2009

"In clear, accessible language, Christian de Quincey unpacks the mysteries of consciousness and how it works, taking the subject off the philosopher's shelf and placing it into the hands of the masses. Anyone reading this book will likely experience a change of view and a shift in their experience of consciousness--bringing them one step closer to reconnecting with their authentic self and the cosmos. Take some time and savor this feast of the mind and heart."--Harville Hendrix, author of Getting the Love You Want: A Guide for Couples

"Christian de Quincey has given us a rare gem of a book. It's truly beautifully written, is simple and readable, and is profound and meaningful. Anyone who has ever wondered about mind and consciousness, and about who we really are and how we are related, should read this book. It is informative and thought provoking. And that's the classical mark of all inspired philosophers."--Ervin Laszlo, author of Quantum Shift in the Global Brain and Science and the Akashic Field

Reseña del editor:

A user-friendly, step-by-step guide to understanding the mind

· Presents a practical journey into understanding consciousness--philosophy’s hardest problem, science’s final frontier, and spirituality’s deepest mystery

· Offers 7 steps to transform your life using the shadow and the light of consciousness

Consciousness from Zombies to Angels presents a practical, step-by-step “owner’s guide” for the mind that sorts out philosophy’s hardest problem, science’s final frontier, and spirituality’s deepest mystery--what consciousness is, how it works, and why it’s important. Christian de Quincey presents seven simple steps for understanding consciousness and how it can lead to spiritual awareness: observe your language, identify the problem, learn how to look, recognize your patterns, know yourself, embrace your shadow, and practice transformation.

All of us exhibit both shadow and light, aspects of ourselves we fear and deny (our inner Zombies) as well as qualities we admire and want to radiate (our inner Angels). The key to a creative and fulfilled life is to integrate both. De Quincey reveals that the way to transformation is to accept ourselves exactly as we are--a work in progress.

Readers will learn the difference between “energy talk” and “consciousness talk”; how the body affects the mind, and vice versa; and where to go for help to develop consciousness, heal emotions, or grow spiritually. De Quincey shows how to recognize and break habits and patterns that run your life, how to find out who you really are, and why facing up to your darkest fears will liberate your brightest light as you learn to embrace all of your humanity and experience the power of transformation.
