Comments: Chet Day of Health & Beyond Newsletter said this about the book, "Reading The Oz Factors gave me the same thrill as an adult that I remember getting over 40 years ago when I first saw Judy Garland in The Wizard of Oz. I believe its most valuable contribution lies with the extended Oz metaphor and how this metaphor has affected the way I think about assumptions to my life that I've long accepted as being true without ever actually questioning them. In this sense, Lawrence Spencer has not only written a wonderful book about philosophical ideas--as well as writing the most insightful commentary on the movie version of The Wizard of Oz that I've ever read or heard--but, he's also written a how-to manual that will teach you a new way of thinking, a method of reflection that will open your mind to all kinds of new ideas and perceptions. The Oz Factors now has a solid place on my 'must read' list." |
