"SOULS IN THE SEA" is a brilliant combination of mythology and science. While it may take a bit of effort to wrap your brain around this perspective that's a whole new way of thinking, it is SO worth the effort. Taylor's viewpoint is both wide-ranging and spiritual in his outlook...demanding a radical review of our cultural conditioning, then going into the far deeper realization that we share this planet with other intelligent beings with spiritual realities of their own. Grasp this concept and then other possibilites will flood right in, like a rising tide. An important book that will surely open eyes, blow minds, reassure some while at the same time antagonize others.
