During his talk in June at American University in Washington, DC, Dr. Rosenthal described his motivation for writing this new book:

''For anxiety, for problems with alcohol abuse, for anger management problems, I saw people responding. I referred them to the local TM Center and they would respond. I would see it in my patients, I would see it in myself, and I would see it in my research. I (started to) feel like I would have to write a book on the subject, and I looked in the research literature and sure enough there were hundreds of publications, many of them in first-rate journals. The subject just captivated me and the result is the book, Transcendence.''
