Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "As the end of the century approaches, the eternal problems of life confronting mankind, particularly in the western world, appear to be as incapable of solution as they have always been. Further problems have emerged as a result of the failure of the products of science and technology to bring about a more contented society, as envisaged not so long ago in some circles. More than ever before, thinking men and women feel the need to seek for answers to the meaning and purpose of life. In his opening chapter, Dr. Easton considers not only the age-old questions that have always been asked, but also those especially significant for our times. As he states, this is not a textbook of anthroposophy (the spiritual science formulated by the Austrian philosopher, Rudolf Steiner, 1861-1925), but he presents anthroposophical ideas, including those of reincarnation and karma, with great clarity, and compellingly suggests to the reader their relevance and application to the problems of modern life. This book will, without doubt, be of great help to the growing number of people concerned about the disturbing trends in life today, who really feel the need to seek for a solution, and who are, as the author says, 'looking for something that goes beyond the traditional religious teachings, and who do not think modern science has all the answers'." -- Back cover.
