Remembered For Love: Lao Russell Of Swannanoa - edition reliée, livre de poche

Emigrating to America, she increasingly sought to fathom her spiritual side, but this lifelong quest was not completed until she met Walter Russell, a notable physicist, sculptor, philosopher, and the subject of Glenn Clark's book, The Man Who Tapped the Secrets of the Universe. Together, the Russells devoted themselves to spreading universal truths of love and light to students around the globe. The couple founded The University of Science and Philosophy at Swannanoa, an Italianate palace atop the Blue Ridge overlooking the Shenandoah Valley of Virginia. Although Lao passed away in 1988, twenty-five years after Walter's death, the University continues to attract students through its publications and home-study courses. Author J. B. Yount III spent some fifteen years compiling information, interviewing friends, family, and students, and finally writing this remarkably intimate, comprehensive, and compelling biography. Highlights: A definitive biography, with excerpts from Lao Russell's writings, including God Will Work With You But Not For You and Love: A Scientific and Living Philosophy of Love and Sex. Introduction by stage, movie, and television star Eddie Albert. Includes famous students of Lao and Walter Russell, among them Gloria Swanson, Melford Okilo, Barry Goldwater, Cary Grant, Joan Crawford, Shirley MacLaine, Eddie Albert, Tallulah Bankhead, Paul Fisher, and John Denver.
