David Deida
Acknowledged as one of the most insightful and provocative teachers
of our time, bestselling author David Deida continues to
revolutionize the way that men and women grow spiritually and
sexually. His ten books are published in more than twenty-five
languages worldwide and are required reading in university, church,
and spiritual center courses. His workshops on a radically
practical spirituality have been hailed as among the most original
and authentic contributions to the field of self-development
currently available. He is a founding member of Integral Institute,
and has taught and conducted research at the University of
California-San Diego School of Medicine, University of
California-Santa Cruz, San Jose State University, Lexington
Institute in Boston, and Ecole Polytechnique in Paris, France. Some
of his recent books include Blue Truth, The Enlightened Sex Manual,
The Way of the Superior Man, and Instant Enlightenment.
"I keep giving this book away; I think I've owned 30 different
copies already. I tend to pass it out to anybody, man or woman, who
has made a commitment to-or even has a passing interest in-the art
of loving. David Deida gets it, like no one I've ever read, and he
writes about it forcefully, honestly, and downright
poetically."
-Michael Tucker, actor and author "The Way of the Superior Man is
quite wonderful. Finally, a guide for the noncastrated male. This
book will offend and infuriate some, inspire and test others, but
challenge virtually everybody. I found it wise, insightful,
occasionally brilliant, and always resourceful. To transcend the
body-mind means to transcend and include its sexuality, not
transcend and evaporate it. Few are the books that discuss strong
sexuality within strong spirituality, instead of tepid sexuality
diluted by a mediocre spiritual stance. This book steps
straightforwardly into the challenge. Love it or loathe it, it is a
shout from the heart of one perspective of the eternal
masculine."
-Ken Wilber, author of Sex, Ecology, Spirituality; No Boundary; and
Grace and Grit "At last! A book that explains the heart and soul of
a woman to men. As a woman, I've never felt so understood and
validated. This book is a key to helping men and women take their
relationships one step further. Finally, a clear and brilliant
guide to unraveling the mystery of relationships."
-Marci Shimoff, co-author of the New York Times #1 bestseller
Chicken Soup for the Woman's Soul "The Way of the Superior Man lays
out a challenge before all men to fulfill their true purpose and to
be authentically masculine. It will guide you on your journey to a
successful and spiritually complete way of life. I invite you to
live in the moment, to love openly, and to step up to the plate
with this book in your hand."
-Tony Robbins, author of Awaken the Giant Within and Unlimited
Power "David's work speaks to the core of our work as men. He
offers a bold view of men, and challenges us to stand up and lay
claim to the beauty and power of the masculine. He does not
advocate superiority as in 'superiority to women.' He speaks of
superiority as the Greeks might. The challenge is strictly
internal. The invitation is to rise above our mediocrity, to let go
of making excuses for our own laziness, to stop apologizing for who
we are, and to stop blaming others or our childhood for how we've
become. He asks that we step into the fullness of our
being-intense, focused, powerful, clear. And directly connected to
our hearts."
-Dennis Mead-Shikaly, Executive Director: The ManKind Project / New
Warrior Network
