DESCRIPTION:
He built the first hospital devoted exclusively to alternative medicine. The first researcher to have unlimited access to thousands of pages of documentation, including transcripts of nearly every trance session, Sidney D. Kirkpatrick has written the definitive biography of a simple man with a complex gift--a man who was freakish yet ordinary, powerful yet selfless, legendary yet inscrutable until now. He advised housewives, corporate executives, Harry Houdini, Marilyn Monroe, and secretly (it is believed) President Woodrow Wilson. He founded a university devoted to psychic research. And his standing-room-only lectures became an inspiration to public figures from Albert Einstein to John Lennon to Steven Spielberg. From this "sleeping" state, he could also preview the future and describe the past, as well as converse in any language.

Rather he presents an evenhanded story about the life of this American prophet, using a myriad of sources, including transcripts of his trances as well as Cayce's personal letters and papers. Although Cayce prescribed a seemingly lethal dose of the homeopathic belladonna (deadly nightshade), the baby survived and was healed. --Tara West. and even master magician Henry Houdini couldn't debunk or explain Cayce's amazing gifts.
