"Awe is the stone rejected by many parts of Western civilization
with its materialist and reductionist assumptions, but this book
makes awe a cornerstone of a new and intriguing theory about human
life." -David Elkins, Ph.D., Author of Beyond Religion, Professor
of Psychology Emeritus, Pepperdine University
"Really excellent! When I read Rediscovery of Awe, I felt like I
was wrestling with holy writ." -E. Mark Stern, Ed.D., Professor of
Psychology Emeritus, Iona College, Editor Emeritus, The
Psychotherapy Patient
"This book by prominent psychologist Schneider comes armed with
impressive accolades from the likes of Michael Lerner...and Matthew
Fox...Readers will find that Schneider's views owe something to
those of Rabbi Abraham Joshua Heschel, Rollo May...and R.D. Laing.
His uplifting vision stands in very good and convincingly
interfaith company. Highly recommended." -Library Journal, 5/1/2004
