Reviews

Peter Ormerod’s book is a monumental, compelling, and profoundly original study of David Bowie’s spiritual and religious ideas, inspirations and meditations. Bowie always had a search for meaning at the centre of his music. There was a spiritual muse which both grounded his ideas and guided the way to a transcendent realm, more real than the mundane suburbia of his younger days. For anyone who’s life was transformed by Bowie’s music, or who wishes to gain an understanding of the deeper ramifications of Bowie’s ideas, then this wonderful book is essential reading. * Dr Paul Fuller, Lecturer in Buddhist Studies, School of Divinity, University of Edinburgh *
