M. Scott Peck

The Road Less Traveled : A New Psychology of Love, Traditional Values and Spiritual Growth

Spirituality and Inspiration Editor's Recommended Book
By melding love, science, and religion into a primer on personal growth, M. Scott Peck launched his highly successful writing and lecturing career with this book. Even to this day, Peck remains at the forefront of spiritual psychology as a result of The Road Less Traveled. In the era of I'm OK, You're OK, Peck was courageous enough to suggest that "life is difficult" and personal growth is a "complex, arduous and lifelong task." His willingness to expose his own life stories as well as to share the intimate stories of his anonymous therapy clients creates a compelling and heartfelt narrative.

Further Along the Road Less Traveled : The Unending Journey Toward Spiritual Growth

The long-awaited sequel to The Road Less Traveled deals with blame and forgiveness, self-love vs. self-esteem, the New Age movement, the illusion of romantic love, and the mystery of death.

Different Drum

In his ground-breaking bestseller, The Road Less Traveled, Peck took readers on a personal journey of psychological and spiritual development. In his new national bestseller, The Different Drum, he takes the next step--to the larger experience of living and working in community.

A World Waiting to Be Born : Civility Rediscovered

Just as The Road Less Traveled provided hope and guidance for individuals seeking growth, this major new work by M. Scott Peck, M.D., offers a needed prescription for our deeply ailing society. Our illness is Incivility--morally destructive patterns of self-absorption, callousness, manipulativeness, and materialism so ingrained in our routine behavior that we do not even recognize them. There is a deepening awareness that something is seriously wrong with our personal and organizational lives. Using examples from his own life, case histories, and dramatic scenarios of businesses that made a conscious decision to bring civility to their organizations , Dr. Peck demonstrates how change can be effected and how we and our organizations can be restored to health. This wise, practical, and radical book is a blueprint for achieving personal and societal well-being.

In Search of Stones : A Pilgrimage of Faith, Reason, and Discovery

From the acclaimed author of The Road Less Traveled comes the personal story of his own journey of self-discovery. On a three-week spiritual quest with his wife to see the ancient megalithic stones in the countryside of Wales, England, and Scotland, he gained insight into such issues as parenthood, holiness, romance, art, and his own shortcomings.

In Heaven As on Earth : A Vision of the Afterlife

When our soul leaves the flesh, what spiritual journey do we take from here? Dr. M. Scott Peck attempts to answer this timeless question in a fable about faith, destiny, and finding our place in the afterlife. The reader is taken on a journey, to learn about the importance of having a "purpose" on both heaven and earth, and also learns the importance of principles of faith and community that will serve the reader well on the Earth, and beyond.

From a reader in Ontario -

"A beautiful solace
I happened to read this book while my son was fighting cancer and was in bone marrow treatment. I was struggling with death and afterlife. Dr. Peck's book was heavensent. He offered me a such a delightful comfort in this compassionate vision of afterlife. He offers a wonderful sense of continuity of ourselves.It's heartening to believe all this love we share here is passed and carried on. That we all stay connected at the deepest level of our souls remembering and living the love we share. Best of all, the afterlife Dr. Peck describes is not a panacea or the giant puzzle finally solved, but a continuation of the sweet-sour mystery of life (or afterlife). His message I believe is that we as love-bearers is the best role we can play in this vast mysterious universe. To love enough to pass on, hold on, let go, agonize, yield, accept and to rejoice in the faith and belief we are lovable and loving for eternity. "
