I'm looking to learn from some of the great thinkers of our time. Things we must learn, books we must read, things that must be shared that people don't know. Recently I've benefited from learning about Michael Shermer, Bruce Lipton, Barbara Brennan and some more information by Steven Pinker, as I hadn't explored their work much.

I know I've said before that I've personally benefited a lot from the work of David Deida, and I think everyone should check out a little of James Randi, even if they don't agree with him. So I'm curious, what great thinkers, what rare books, who that has released publicly accessible material do you want to expose to the people on here, and bring forth into the spotlight?


PS. I also recently enjoyed listening to Sir John Templeton's the law of inner wealth (Laws of Inner Wealth 4 CDs+ Sir John Templeton NEW - eBay (item 310062745713 end time Jul-27-08 18:22:05 PDT)) even though it was mainly philosophy, and I prefer a lot of strategy.

Also, anyone been exposed to much of the work of Cloe Madanes on working with family violence, marital violence, and the prevention of abuse and incest? http://www.outcomesnm.org/12th_annual_brochure.pdf She says: There are four stages to spiritual development: The need to control; The need to be loved; The need to give love; and The need to repent and to forgive
