Description
Who is the man behind the best-selling Power vs. Force: The Determinants of Human Behavior and the Map of Consciousness? From fundamentalism to atheism, psychoanalysis to Zen Buddhism, the pits of hell to the infinite presence of God, Dr. David R. Hawkins has dedicated his life to the pursuit of Truth, spending over fifty years as a psychiatrist before becoming a spiritual teacher after the publication of Power vs. Force. As a psychiatrist, Hawkins helped pioneer a new field of psychiatry, running one of the largest clinics in the United States and treating thousands of hopeless cases of schizophrenia, alcoholism, and drug addiction. He worked closely with some of the worlds leading minds, including two-time Nobel laureate Linus Pauling; famed psychiatrists Abram Hoffer and Humphrey Osmund; and the charismatic co-founder of Alcoholics Anonymous, Bill Wilson. Doctor of Truth explores what kind of life Hawkins led, who influenced his development, and what experiences shaped his understanding of the world around him, as well as the influences that informed his Map of Consciousness and the writing of Power vs. Force.
