Riassunto:

A manifesto and guidebook revealing the secrets of the real wizards of history to empower the world changers of today. The author examines the stories of wizards both from legend--Merlyn, Gandalf, The Wizard of Oz, etc.--but also many true wizards from history, including da Vinci, Einstein, Gandhi and more recent examples inlcuding Even Ensler, Jeff McBride and Steve Jobs. He concludes that these unusually effective human change agents share certain common traits. Traits that are not taught in our schools, but can be learned by anyone willing to seek the necessary experiences and embrace the essential principles.Our time requires humans willing to embrace the wisdom only available through experience and reflection. We need those willing to take on radical levels of personal responsibility as the shepherds of change. Those who aspire to true, first hand understanding through their own thought processes, who can see the systems within systems that make the world work, and have the courage to truly question everything. These are the true wizards. This book is designed to set readers on the path that can make each of them such a person--The Wizard's Way.

Informazioni sull'autore: The Wizard's Way is Tobias Beckwith's third book. His "Beyond Deception, Volumes 1 & 2" have been best sellers in the world of magic and magicians. A life spent in the performing arts - first as a college instructor, then on the production and management teams of such long running New York hits as The Fantasticks and Sweeney Todd, gives Beckwith a unique perspective, both on the business of the arts, and on the art of business. He has spent the past 25 years managing and producing shows for magical performance artists Marco Tempest and Jeff McBride, which has provided him with unique insights into the many methods and uses of deception in the world both inside and outside entertainment. Finally, a life-long fascination with the workings of the human mind, perception, influence and some more esoteric human pursuits including shamanism, hermetics and various yogic practices combine with the author's other interests to make him uniquely suited as a researcher and purveyor of the stories and practices of true wizardy.
