From the Back Cover:

"An immediate and very easy to understand account of the healing process as it works within the healer. If this book falls into the right hands at the right time, it could save lives." --Alan Arkin, Academy Award-winning American actor, director, and musician.

"With open heart and deep insight, Stuart Perrin explores the true nature of health and disease. In Leah, cancer is a disorder of the spirit whose roots can finally be cut by a fundamental change in ones spiritual life. An important story of purity, loss and understanding." --Richard Gere, Golden Globe-winning American actor, social activist of many causes, co-founder of Tibet House, and writer.

"There is a powerful simplicity and directness about this story and I have no doubt that it will have a wide audience. The quality of the writing and the nature of the narrative give the book a strong hold on the reader's attention. Please accept my thanks for the privilege of reading Leah." --Norman Cousins, American political journalist, author, professor, and world peace advocate. (added by author)

About the Author:

Stuart Perrin was born in New York City on August 10, 1942. At the age of sixteen he began a search for a teacher who could direct his creative energies on a spiritual path. He studied literature, philosophy, acting and wrote poems of a visionary nature. He lived a bohemian life in Europe and Africa until his twenty-fth birthday when circumstances forced him to return to the States. It was at that time that he met Rudi (Albert Rudolph) in New York City. Mr. Perrin became a disciple of Rudi's, and their relationship grew closer over the years. They were together at the time of Rudi's death in 1973 in an airplane crash. "I never felt he had gone. If I wish to be with him, to learn from him, I just open my heart. He is there. Sitting. Smiling. Sharing his teachings."

His studies with Rudi gave Mr. Perrin a deep insight into how meditation and inner work could help a human being nd a method whereby it is possible to live in the world and be free of it at the same time. Mr. Perrin spent nine years in Texas where he ran a school of meditation. He now lives in New York City, continues to teach spiritual work in the tradition of Rudi, and has many students throughout the United States, Europe, Israel and Brazil. (added by author)
