A Fine first Printing in an edgeworn dust-jacket that has an embossed library stamping on the front cover, otherwise Near Fine; The New Age Movement (NAM) has been growing in popularity since the early 1990s. It has been labeled a "cult" by some, but it has also been embraced by some as a way to connect with the divine. The New Age Movement has been criticized for its use of Eastern concepts and techniques without properly explaining or interpreting them, and for its reliance on pseudoscience and mythology. The Bible, however, has been embraced by many New Agers as a source of wisdom and guidance. This book examines the New Age Movement and the Bible from a comparative perspective, looking at how the two can be used together to help people connect with their divine nature.; 8vo; 189 pages .
