5.0 out of 5 stars The Phenomenology of Revelation?, December 29, 1999

By	"starowl" (Arlington, VA USA) - See all my reviews

Yes, that's right. This book is one of those sleepers by a 21st century megagenius that, like a few other megageniuses, won't be recognized as such until the rest of the world catches up with him. But he's planning on it... Laffoley thinks that this next century will be a time of evolutionary unfolding that will be as much a jump as the Renaissance was, and, again, he's making a very good case for it in this book. He's calling our new Millennium the beginning of the "Bauhauroque," an elision of the Baroque and the Bauhaus... Let Paul fill in the rest.

Paul Laffoley is a painter, by the way, and his images, reproduced in a good number of color plates in this book, give a very graphic expression to the phenomenology of revelation. This is a seminal book, and a very great value for the price. Just consider how much a first edition of, say, James Joyce's Ulysses might bring... And all you have to do is wait...

5.0 out of 5 stars Unbelievable, March 10, 2003

By A Customer

This book is, without competition, the greatest work I have ever read. Laffoley, through his artworks and inspiring text manages to lead the reader into a higher dimensional realm..

Talk about mind expanding literature!!
