A Second Step For DowsersAt this point one must honestly review one's motivations and goals, and decide to "put one's heart into it" or not. Without this honesty, commitment, humility and dedication, I don't think the necessary connections can be established and maintained in one's psyche to be a good dowser. This is because with dowsing it's an all-or-nothing issue - once confronted with the true nature of dowsing, one can no longer claim ignorance to its underlying miraculous nature. At that point one must decide whether to surrender one's ego, or simply give up the game.
There are many ideas presented in this book in a rather friendly and rambling style, like an after-dinner conversation in the living room. But any book that recommends starting the day with the prayer "Allow me to be of service today" shows its true colors.


I read it and was astounded. It is today and the millinnium

The classicThat said, this is still a valuable reference. It covers, in great depth, the theory of TEM, with chapters devoted to most subjects.
The chapter and appendix on sample preparation are invaluable!
This book will be somewhat superceeded when Marc de Graef's text is published (probably in Summer 2002 -- I took de Graef's course at Carnegie Mellon Univ., it was great!), but this book will still be an important reference, and an important historical signpost, in the field of TEM.
This book fills a need that very few do, focusing on the power of crystals instead of the scientific origins of crystals. I highly recommend this book.
