In Handbook for Humans, investigative writer James Sloman distills the wisdom of dozens of traditional paths on subjects of health, happiness, success and peace and clearly, simply, and elegantly describes a comprehensive overview of how our lives really can work. It succeeds as an excellent field guide for achieving balance, equanimity, vibrancy and wholeness in our lives.

Handbook for Humans is actually a collection of four volumes in one cover, addressing the spirit, mind, heart, and body. Each volume is then further divided into two dimensions, the inner and outer, allowing the reader to understand what inner changes might be called for to effect the outer manifestations she or he is seeking out in the world.

Peppered with dozens of real-life stories along with fables, folk tales, quotes and studies, Handbook for Humans is the manual many have been looking for to use in daily life as a course in what works.

About the Author

James M. Sloman is an investigative writer whose subject is the human condition. He has sought understanding from a wide range of great teachers past and present, famous and obscure, and traditions ranging from India to the kitchen table.

Originally trained in philosophy at Princeton and with an MFA in film from Columbia, he draws from experience in an eclectic career which has included being a copywriter, assistant editor and computer programmer in New York, a novelist in rural Massachusetts, a trader in Chicago and a market theorist in San Diego.

In addition to presenting occasional courses on the theories of financial markets, Sloman has spent over two decades teaching seminars and workshops on spirituality, consciousness in everyday life, diet and nutrition, finding our true calling in everyday life, and accessing our inner guidance.

In addition to Handbook for Humans, Sloman is the author of the books Nothing, The Natural Way, Song of Existence, A Global Vision and The State of the World, as well as the audio series Affecting Our Reality, the music album Songs From The Bottom Of The Sea and the video series Cooling the Mind, Warming the Heart.

Store Description

Established in 1971 in Denver's historic Park. Hill neighborhood, we are the oldest continuously operated not-for-profit bookstore in the Denver metro area. Managed by a seven-person Board of Directors and staffed entirely with community volunteers, we are able to offer a large selection of used books at low prices. As part of our mission to support community literacy, we provide funds to local school libraries to expand their collections, and donate to local programs focused on increasing reading proficiency itself as well as cultivating the joy of lifelong reading. Our surplus books have gone to area homeless shelters, senior citizen centers, jails, and even to Africa to help establish school and community libraries there.
