Dan Shafer is a spiritual coach, teacher, author and lecturer known for his crystal-clear explanations of deep spiritual subjects and his powerful meditations. His most recent book, "The Power of I AM: Claiming your inherent power to consciously create a life of purpose, meaning and joy", explains that how we finish the sentence "I AM..." largely determines what we attract or create in our lives. The book also teaches a new approach to meditation that Dan developed over a decade. This affirmation-based technique is designed to help seekers who have had difficulty in the past learning to meditate or who are seasoned meditators looking for a deeply fresh experience.

Among spiritual seekers, he is famous for his slogan, "There's only one of us here."

1.0 out of 5 stars Only for the Reference, August 5, 2000

By 

Eric "poetfreak" Sebasta (Spencer, IA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: JavaScript & Netscape Wizardry: The Ultimate Guide to Harnessing the Power of JavaScript and the New Version of Netscape (Paperback)

This book contains a great reference of methods, properties and events avalible to JavaScript 1.0. And it also mensions a couple of bugs that came with the Macintosh NS2. However, the source code on the CD comes with errors (using NS2 and NS3 as well as IE4) and much of the book is fluff. I hope Mr. Shafer's efforts on books after this contained a little more editing and investigation. I bought this book for a $1 at a garage sale for the reference, and that is what I think it is worth. Eric

This review is from: JavaScript & Netscape Wizardry: The Ultimate Guide to Harnessing the Power of JavaScript and the New Version of Netscape (Paperback)

This is a great book to learn from. The author shows you code and the results of how the code works. There is also a reference in the back of all the Javascript objects' methods and properties.
