Rudolf Hess was Adolf Hitler's Deputy Führer until, in 1941, he flew to Scotland, ostensibly to negotiate peace between Germany and Britain. Captured by the British, he was held for the rest of the War, before being convicted of war crimes at the Nuremberg Trials in 1946. Desmond Zwar collaborated with Col. Burton C. Andrus, who was Commandant of Nuremberg Prison during the Trials, on his book The Infamous of Nuremberg, and with Col. Eugene K. Bird, US Governor of Spandau Prison (where Hess was held for over forty years), on The Loneliest Man in the World. For reasons of practicality, neither of these books told the full story, which is now revealed for the first time in Talking to Rudolf Hess. As well as his interviews with Hess and others, Zwar tells the story of how this book came to be written, including how Hess hid proofs in his underpants, how Bird was sacked by the US Army and how the CIA tried to recover the transcripts.
Ainslie Meares, M.D., (1910-1986) was an extraordinary man and the father of a movement in medicine toward empowering his patients and making them responsible for their own well-being. A renowned psychiatrist and the author of many books on the more philosophical aspects of self-improvement, he left his thriving practice and gave up his medical license in order to pursue his work with cancer patients, using meditation as therapy. Dr. Meares was bold and resolute in his work, willing to experiment but with a unique empathy and gentleness with his patients. He taught them that they could influence the course of their own illness – that healing came from within them. “When you are with him, he is totally with you. Nothing else intrudes. He senses just how you are and his openness allows you to sense him too.” – From Zwar’s Introduction In this book, Desmond Zwar gives us insight into the life and achievements of Dr. Ainslie Meares, through probing discussion and fascinating case histories. Learn about the medical doctor who made history using meditation to successfully treat cancer.
