Reviews

Bruce Ross has collected for this book of lectures on literature and art a unique purview of human consciousness and its expression in heightened states, often coinciding with the inner dimensions of established spiritual traditions. (Anna-Teresa Tymieniecka, President of The World Phenomenology Institute; Editor of 'Phenomenological Inquiry and Analecta Husserliana') 'Traveling to Other Worlds' is a book of stunning breadth and insight. It is not only a journey across a wide range of cultures but also a quest into the deep north of the interior landscape. The reader's mind is expanded and vivified by these explorations into the source and forms of transpersonal creativity. (David Landiss Barnhill, Director of Environmental Studies and Professor of English, University of Wisconsin at Oshkosh; Editor and Translator of 'Basho's Haiku: Selected Poems' and 'Basho's Journey: The Literary Prose of Matsuo Basho')
