Confessions of a Bibliomaniac Books, Cults, Evolution, and Skepticism

Beginning with two autobiographical essays about Professor David Lane's book addiction and his forty plus years of exposing cults, this volume includes critical essays on Andrew Cohen, a spiritual teacher who was forced to resign only to repackage himself several years later; the new age philosopher, Ken Wilber, and his "integral" theory; a skeptical analysis behind why Donald Trump was elected; the future of books in light of virtual reality headsets such as Oculus Rift; insights on the religious visions of Sri Ramakrishna and the role of guru "transparency." Also, includes a skeptical section on how New Age thinkers are trying to reformulate Darwin's theory of evolution by natural selection.
