Readers Say
11 Days in May is one of those books that will blow your mind! I could not put the book down. The book blurs the line between science, religion, and spirituality. The end has an interesting twist, which will change your entire perceptive. I am currently reading it for a second time. I definitely recommend it. ~ Tata, Houston, Texas
I received a review copy of 11 DAYS IN MAY. I should also add that I receive hundreds of books per month and make it past the first few pages of very few. This book is written entirely in dialogue between two character: one who seems to be in search of answers (the author), and the other who seems content with allowing the seeker to come to his own conclusions through introspection and consideration. It is the journey through conversation that had me captivated from the onset. Whether you are spiritual, religious, agnostic, or something else, the brilliance of this book is that it affords each reader his or her own path to examining both timely and age old questions. The fact that the author has a background as a nuclear engineer and corporate CEO and vacillates between his trust in science and fact and his thirst for answers beyond a text book creates a fascinatingly juxtaposed conversation that is both eye opening and genuine. I highly recommend this book to anyone who enjoys being challenged to think about things in new ways. - Jared, San Diego California
"Thank You! OMG I felt like you wrote this book for ME. My struggle's with faith, led me to science as a source of answers. You covered both parts of that internal battle and my drug addiction. I spent the better part of 3 hours in tears after finishing your book and for the first time in a long time, I felt light as a feather. I could go on and on, but in stead I choose to try and get every person I know to read this book." - Mark, Houston, Texas
"I'm reading you're book and just stopped at truth bumps. Hearing your story I'm glad I payed attention early in life. I feel like what you're writing is everything I feel and believe and could never explain so I remain silent to not sound ignorant or be questioned. I'm truly blessed that you are sharing your story so others can open their hearts to God a nd feel his love and not be consumed by "the world". There are few people here that I know who understand what I live and experience daily, if only the world could see what He has I'm mind for us- what a world this would be! Thank you!" - Catherine, Spring Texas
"I have always been very analytical and logical. I still am in regard to most things - and often skeptical too - even of other people who claim similar experiences to mine. There is a difference between the "fringe element" that believe everything they see or hear about the mystical, spiritual, enigmatic, magic stuff, and the people who have actually experienced the mystical. Upon reading "11 Days in May", I count you among the actual experiencers. That being said, your book has proven fertile ground for me for some concepts I had never considered, and it dovetails nicely with other concepts I have arrived at independently through my own quest and life experience. My own personal experiences have changed the type of person I am significantly, and I suspect your book may add significantly to those changes. Thank you for writing your book! I am enjoying "11 Days in May" immensely and will no doubt continue to refer to it long after I have finished reading it." - Paul, Toronto Canada
This books very successfully (in my opinion) uses an analytical approach to tackle some very challenging topics - God, our purpose, reasons for war, current environmental calamities! If you have an engineering or science background, and have pondered these topics (who hasn't), I recommend you experience this book. Examples that really left an impression on me - the 'programs' in our mind; the broad, yet effective description of our World of Form; 'conversation' format that allowed both a 'soul' and 'analyzer' to emerge simultaneously. I found that, because I also have an analytical mind, I really had to 'stop and think' frequently during this book; in short, I had to slow down and let my analysis catch up with the author's. But once I did, I had innumerable 'OH WOW' moments that have already 'changed my life'. Highly recommended! - Jim, New York City
