Sweetly disturbing. A masterpiece, one of my 5 best ever!
If you try to understand this book with your head, you will be torn into a million pieces. It is amazingly difficult to explain what this book is about... you should just know that if you read it, at some point something very strange happens to you... this something is very disturbing, but it is also very sweet. Take a chance and read it!

Reading "Time and the Soul" is an awakening.
Needleman's ideas, while simply stated, need to be pondered and re-read. This book is amazing. You may want to remove the jacket cover - I think it cheapens the book, and you'll notice the "...and how to get it back" portion of the title is nowhere else to be found. Obviously a marketing technique for the lowest common denominator. Needleman's rejection of time management techniques seems to prove to me that the tabloidesque cover was not his idea.

Will be a philosophical classic
There were times when I had to just put this book down and breathe because of the truth in its pages. Needleman gets to the heart of "time and the soul." It is a short book and can be read quickly, but one reading will not suffice. An incredibly honest book. Similar Products
