Critics Review
” Other Ways of Knowing is a thoughtful presentation of a new paradigm for humanity.
“From his planet-wide explorations across times and cultures, John Broomfield has woven a marvellous multi-cultural, multi-disciplinary web of hopeful knowledge and inspiring teachings that will surely help us find our way again to a more balanced relationship with the Earth and all Her beings.” * Ralph Metzner, Ph.D., psychologist, author of The Well of Remembrance *“Other Ways of Knowing is a thoughtful presentation of a new paradigm for humanity. Weaving a synthesis of observations from science, nature, philosophy, mysticism and personal experience, Bloomfield presents us with a vision congruent with the realizations which are coming to us all through spiritual awakening.” * Shared Transformation *“Broomfield gives us the pattern that connects. A wide-ranging, erudite work. Broomfield writes exquisitely, his knowledge is huge.” * The Book Reader *
