"We do have control of our own destiny , we just have to impose positive emotions in our thoughts and redirect them when negative thoughts creep in."
"Learning so much as I turn the pages."
"By far, my favorite book from the Hicks!"
"I have read a numerous amount of books and listened to many tapes over my 50 years. This book and (as important) the enclosed CD has me picking up something positive to use each and every time I listen or read it."
"It gave great insight on how I was living my life and why I have been feeling stuck for so long."
"Really enjoyed this book!"
"This was my first Abraham book, and here and in a cd collection that I have, Abraham says that he recommends meditation, because stilling thought removes all resistance to your Source energy, and therefore, speeds the process of materialization. I'm just wondering if Abraham is teaching this kind of a directed process for meditation and manifestation, or if he is recommending an actual release of thought and intention temporarily...which produces a great relief, as all efforts of separation and focusing cease. So, I'm wondering, therefore, if Abraham's type of meditation is more like this as well...really a dropping of thought and the attraction process in order to boost your power, which can then be added to your intention after the meditation."
"Got this for my husband, he said it's good."

Waking Up Blind - Lawsuits Over Eye Surgery
And the medical center where you were treated is ignoring the problem. Waking Up Blind is the story of how an eye surgeon became the cause of an array of medical problems for his patients. While my novels deal with fictional medical disasters, Harbin spins a devastating, real-life account that will make the reader forever wary of the charming, super doctor.” —Robin Cook, Author of Coma and Outbreak.
Reviews
"--Dr. Tom Harbin a highly respected Cornell trained ophthalmologist’s details the twisting, turning, tale of lies, cover-ups, deceit, and deception that haunt Emory’s past. Overall, leadership was to blame, patients received unnecessary eye surgeries, good-hearted Emory physicians were blackmailed, and rewards were distributed to those that kept quiet. Your opinion will sway back and forth as you listen to the eloquent, compelling words spoken, as Emory’s top ophthalmologist’s tries to defend his actions during several ethics committee hearings."
"As a physician I know all to well that abuse of power can be a lethal mix in the quality care of patients."
"Clearly, patient safety has become a priority at every major medical center. Not only are avoidable medical errors less likely today, Universities have grown far less tolerant of potentially fraudulent billing practices, as a result of huge public settlements paid by major teaching hospitals to reimburse the Medicare program for past practices. Lastly, there is substantially more protection for those whose ethics compel them to question potentially inappropriate and abusive practices, along with an established investigative structure that is less likely to whitewash an allegation. It is a remarkable tribute to medicine that society is surprised when human nature at its worst invades the medical citadel, while we have long-since ceased to be surprised when it invaded the corporate boardroom, the city council, the federal government, or even the local house of worship."
