New Cover for Perennial Book on Transcendental Meditation


This new year continues with making old things new again. One of our books,  Everything You Need to Know about TM (Paraview Special Editions, 2004) by John White has received positive feedback from its readers for years, for example:

"This little book is the best book on Transcendental Meditation (TM) have ever read."
- Jusuf Hariman on Amazon


Everything You Want to Know about TM -- Including How to Do It by John White"This book is unique in that unlike most books telling readers how great TM is, White gives the pros and cons of TM from every view point."
- Andrew Ling on Amazon.

We at Cosimo felt this book of perennial value deserved a refreshed cover and we are excited to show this new cover to you, our old and new readers. We believe this cover reflects the appealing character of this book in line with this second decade of the 21st century and we hope you like it. Let us know what you think of this new cover.

Transcendental Meditation (TM) --- extremely popular in the 1970s and '80s --- continues to be one of the most accessible forms of Eastern spiritual practice in the West. However, while TM has many supporters, it is often subject to criticism and skepticism. In this book, consciousness researcher, John White takes on both critics and cheerleaders to give a full evaluation of this practice. Offering explanations for all elements of Transcendental Meditation, a glossary of TM terms, and a "how-to" lesson for those interested in trying it themselves, White gives the ultimate assessment.
