Summary: Where there is Love, there is no Fear....
Review: ....I was not a big fan of the ponderous "A Course In Miracles" and its workbook or its repetitive nature. Neither, it seems was Jampolsky. But somehow he got thru it and here helps distill it and make it easy to understand for even the thick headed like me. Actually, I discovered Jampolsky's work thru the seminal, semiautobiographical work "Teach Only Love" which also delineates the Seven Principals of Attitudinal Healing based on the teachings in "A Course..." and the work he does at the Center for Attitudinal Healing in Tiburon.I am surprised that Dr. Jampolsky does not get as much PR as that other big cheerleader of "The Course..." Marianne Williamson, but, he probably doesn't trip on it. I mean, the message may be interpreted differently, but it's just the same and any good word in today's times should be cherished. Whatever ailment you have--mental or physical or financial--the cure is Love. (That is the truth among many truths.) Discover "how to..." in this work. It is truly a treasure with gems of joy and it will be a tremendous aid in your Search....

Summary: Love Is Letting Go of Fear
Review: A few years ago, I found this book that totally changed my life. This book is about how to change your way of thinking. In short, it talks about how people who have experience a negative disappointment or experience in their life tend to think that life repeats its and live in the frame of mind "waiting for the other shoe to drop". It discusses:
-Why one thinks that way
-How to over come it.
-How to let go This book applies to all those who are human and makes mistakes. If there is one book I would ever recommend, this is it!!! It is a light read of only 144 pages. It is short, sweet and straight to the point. You could knock it out in a day and be on your way to a happy mindset. If you are ready to change your life and way of thinking, this is the book to do it with!!!

Summary: What a life changer!
Review: A friend of mine advised me to read his book when I was down and out, lost all hope, and was beginning to feel that the world is just a bitter place full of people desperate to take advantage of each other. As you can tell from some of the reviews for this book, there are people like that (because they live in fear) but this book taught me that there is so much more! When we are afraid, we see the world as such a hostile place and are never able to open up and appreciate the beauty of life. We become aggressive, defensive, and disrespectful of many things. When we let go of that fear, we are able to embrace the beauty of everything and everyone despite the flaws they have. The authors of this book explain this very nicely but there is another book that explains this exquisitely! It is a book called "The Ever-Transcending Spirit" by Toru Sato and it is an absolute must read as well! If you are ready to let go of fear, this book will be a life changer!

Summary: A revision?
Review: A number of years ago, I was referred to the book, "Love is Letting Go of Fear" by Jampolsky. At the time, it created such an impact on my life, I never forgot its message.......Last week, I saw it on the shelf in my favorite bookstore and new I once again had to read it! Again, I was filled with a peace and "understanding", but felt it's content to be different than the original publication I had read. I know that the publisher is different ----- can anyone tell me if the book has been rewritten and text changed? I had thought I had read the book over 25 years ago, but it could be that my mind is detouring! :)

Summary: Fear......Love
Review: I use this book every few days, as a meditation-starter. The positive thoughts are founded in "Christian" values, and yet go further with sometimes radically thought-provoking statements. For example, "This instant is the only time there is....My present happiness is all I see....And everything that seems to happen to me, I ask for, and receive as I have asked." Insights into human behavior such as these have helped me realize more peace in the present, more groundedness, more energy for my goals.

Summary: Keeping it simple
Review: If you are searching for a belief system you can actually believe, this is your book. It simplifies and distills life's emotions down to love and fear- with fear defined as the absence of love. The book challenges the reader to recognize that his or her "reality" is actually based on skewed perceptions, often colored by negative past experiences. The good news is that Dr. Jampolsky provides an actionable, step-by-step process to undo some of our misperceptions and need for control, and to begin to experience more peace. I have found myself less judgemental and more accepting of myself and others based on the simple but profound message this book has to offer.

Summary: HIGHLY RECOMMENDED
Review: In the last several years I have read this book a number of times -- I keep coming back to it because in easy to understand language it simply explains how to live a happy and peaceful life. Don't know how many copies I've given away -- am purchasing a couple more today!

Summary: Love Is Letting Go of Fear
Review: One afternoon my emotions were at a rock bottom. I needed help. Out of all of the books available in a Unity Library/Bookstore, this one drew my attention. I took it to a quiet restaurant. I had about 5 hours between church and time to go to work. Within 2 hours I had read the book and found a new way of looking at everything that had me so down. (A previously good relationship had gotten very unpleasant and was close to changing drastically. My financial resources were very low and I didn't know whether I was going to be able to pay my rent when it came due.) I realized that by using the principles presented in this book, I could, in an instant, go from sadness to joy, just by changing my perception of any situation. I notice that many of the other reviewers say, "This book changed my life." I am one more person saying the same thing. If you're ready for real help to feel better, this will give it to you. I strongly recommend this book to you if you are hurting for any reason and if you don't want to hurt anymore.

Summary: An excellent book of love and healing.
Review: This book is the very first source by Dr. Jampolsky that I ever read. I had the opportunity to attend a workshop in 1998 that Dr. Jampolsky facilitated ,along with his lovely wife Diane. These two human beings are the most loving people I have ever had the pleasure of meeting. They presented a message that brought me out of despair to a life of joy, hope, and expectancy. My Higher Power used this awesome message of peace and hope to get me in recovery for a myriad of addictions. I have replaced self-loathing and bitterness with unconditional love for myself and others.(Of course, I fail everyday but I never give up trying to be God's light in the world.) THIS BOOK IS A MUST READ FOR EVERYONE IN ANY KIND OF RECOVERY PROGRAM. I am very grateful to my Higher Power for allowing our paths to cross in life.

Summary: Excellent intention and ideology
Review: This book seeks to help people become aware that many times, past experiences that were negative often influence our current thoughts and expected future experiences. It seems this is true, and it is a trap for people who are wearing these 'glasses' to see new things. The book does, indeed, say that love is letting go of fear, in the sense that this fear is the expectation that one will relive or re-experience negative experiences. If one lets go of that expectation, it is easier to see things as they really are, without expectations, in a child-like manner. I thought the book was sweet and well intended and one can feel the hope of the author. I encourage people to read this, if they need reminders that the present or future is not necessarily dependent on the past.
