Intuition: Discover the Inner Workings of our World - Book 1
I was wondering why there were no reviews of my book showing on Amazon.com - now I know. Amazon.com has this new rule that would require a certain amount/volume of purchase in the past six months that would allow someone to leave a review.
I'm glad that I got an email from a kind reader telling me this - I was so thankful because he answered my burning question about the lack of reviews. Hence, I would encourage you to kindly post your reviews here on goodreads.com.
Since this kind reader couldn't post his review on Amazon.com, he emailed it to me - here it is. Thank you very much, Jamie!
Book review by Jamie Duncan
Intuition Book 1 by Zamm Zamudio
Writing a book about a subject that can be so ethereal and nebulous as intuition and yet make it seem natural, real and plausible to more sceptical or scientific minds is quite a challenge and I think Zamm Zamudio goes a great way to achieving her goal. This is not a feel-good introduction to and practice of the intuitive arts. It is a serious attempt to explain and analyse what is going on in us when we intuit and how we have acquired and use this skill. It is written in a personal style with examples from her own life and work, making it accessible to all readers, not just those interested in the subject.
Zamudio presents intuition as a normal human process that has the backing of an immense amount of scientific research and takes the reader in an ordered methodical way from seeing a conceptual definition of the term to identifying examples of intuition in daily life. She clarifies any doubts about the differences between perception, insight, instinct and intuition helping us to understand which label applies to each different thought or internal experience of this type that we have.
The book is very clearly ordered into five separate chapters that allow us to keep the copious amount of information under some sort of control and this is accompanied by a careful use of section headings and of italics for key terms.
Those who need some sort of research backup for the assertions Zamudio makes will be delighted to find that she is meticulous in providing examples, case studies and other investigative analysis in support of her arguments. Where appropriate, she brings in aspects from other fields of thought and activity and shows how they relate to intuitive practice in all moments of life. The author also provides us with her own intuition quadrants to explain how we develop intuition from a genetic, environmental or social aspect.
A whole chapter is dedicated to the care of body and mind so that we are in the best conditions to access our intuition and another chapter considers different mental practices and ways of thinking that can either help or hinder our ability to intuit. The power of meditation, dreams and the Tarot are also discussed.
A final chapter introduces the type of intuition which seems magical or, as the author puts it, fantastical. This is the intuition which perhaps defies analysis with our real-world tools today but which we may better understand one day in the future. A full appendix of references and sources rounds out this complete book.
It is a work that you will probably need to read in parts as I did or at least return to again since there is a lot of information and ideas to reflect on. Such is its richness.
Zamudio does offer some graphics, including a couple of cat pictures which were welcome to break up the text and a few more visual images would have added value to the overall work.
For those seeking a thorough explanation of intuition or those who simply want the confirmation that there is something of value to be found in pursuing the development of it, Intuition book 1 by Zamm Zamudio will give you many answers and good reasons to explore further.
