This book takes the first step toward developing a comprehensive model of consciousness and reality encompassing science, psychology, philosophy, and religion. In it, Wilber examines three realms of knowledge: the empirical realm of the senses, the rational realm of the mind, and the contemplative realm of the spirit.

5.0 out of 5 stars
Original and thought provoking,
By Peter D'Autry "PDA" (Istanbul) - See all my reviews
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Eye to Eye (Paperback)
Ken Wilber has a highly creative vision on science, truth and spirituality. I have read this book several times and it lead me to read other works of him. It gave me a completely different perspective as to how to look at the scientific enterprise today, and what it can tell about the world. Wilbers stance is not anti-science, he rather purports its claim on "truth" is valid, but limited. Very valuable reading I can recommend to everybody. People not very familiar with philosophy and psychology can start with a brief history of everything, or the marriage of sense and soul.

One of Wilber's best,
By
This review is from: Eye to Eye (Paperback)
This is my favorite Wilber book thus far. I found every chapter containing information I really wanted to read. Ken goes to great lengths in this book to discuss why science is not a tool for explaining transcendence especially the new Holographic Theories given much attention as of late. Ken does a wonderful job explaining his understanding of the conscious and unconscious aspects of the psyche. Includes the classic "Pre-Trans Fallacy" and "Mandalic Map of Consciousness" essays.

2.0 out of 5 stars
Disappointing,
By A Customer
This review is from: Eye to Eye (Paperback)
A disappointing read after his other books. In this volume, Ken Wilbur rambles on, and on more than one occassion the read becomes a bore. In addition, he falls prey to criticisms he levels at other authors; in particular, relating to magic, which for many occultsts (like myself) is followed for spiritual reasons.
