Prince's favourite writers? We know his favourite musicians by now, but what about his favourite authors & poets?
The ones that I know he loves: * The Holy Bible * Betty J. Eadie ( her Embraced by the Light inspired him to write The Gold Experience) * Gary Zukav (spiritual teacher) * Erica Jong - Fear of Flying. | |

I really like Gary Zukav too...Especially, "Dance of the Wu Li Master" And "Seat of the soul"
Embraced by the Light is also good. I bet Prince likes Khalil Gibran too. Hey, what about Joseph Campbell...The Impersonal Self Those are exquisite writerz. "The Lion Sleeps Tonight... | |

Billions and Billions: Thoughts of Life and Death at the Brink of the Millennium by Carl Segan
Here's a brief excert from a review Sagan notes that ominous changes to the planet have recently occurred overnight--not literally, but in a geologic wink of the eye. In our million years of existence as a species and our first several thousand years of civilization, human activities impacted the environment only locally. Twentieth-century technology changed that. Even technologies developed with benign intent, such as freon-based refrigeration, automotive engines, and electric power plants, now threaten global catastrophe. The Bible first, tho'! | |
