Title: A wimper without any bang.
Product review: Here's an author trying to make money by writting a book about ideas that other people have had; but the sum total is only equal to the parts. Mr Pinchbeck doesn't really have anything new to say, nor does he impart any real "wow" moments. In discussing mystical/spiritual ideas it is true that what we are trying to talk about is "beyond words", but words can point in the direction of the suchness if the speaker has really had an enlightenment experience. I don't think Mr. Pinchbeck has had that experence. He is lost in intellectualization; I would advise him to "go back to the breath". I do think he wants to make money by compiling what others have said about the topic. But even those he quotes extensively seem to be as lost as he is. A waste of money; without soul.
