Gary Zukav and Linda Francis: NYTimes Bestsellers Authors & Spiritual Teachers
Gary Zukav for years has conveyed the most complex insights in language all can understand. Over and over, he challenges us to see the depth of our potential in the world…and act on that awareness. He is the author of four consecutive New York Times Bestsellers. In 1979, The Dancing Wu Li Masters: An Overview of the New Physics, plumbed the depths of quantum physics and relativity, winning The American Book Award for Science. In 1989, The Seat of the Soul led the way to seeing the alignment of the personality and the soul as the fulfillment of life and captured the imagination of millions, becoming the #1 New York Times bestseller thirty-one times and remaining on the New York Times bestseller list almost three years. Soul Stories (2000), as well as The Heart of the Soul: Emotional Awareness (2002) and The Mind of the Soul: Responsible Choice (2003), both co-authored with Linda Francis, also became New York Times bestsellers.
His gentle presence, humor, and wisdom have endeared Gary Zukav to millions of viewers through his many appearances on The Oprah Winfrey Show. Six million copies of his books are in print and translations have been published in twenty-four languages. Gary Zukav grew up in the Midwest, graduated from Harvard, and became a Special Forces (Green Beret) officer with Vietnam service before writing his first book.
Linda Francis has been practicing the creation of authentic power since she read The Seat of the Soul in 1989. In 1993 she met Gary Zukav and they created a spiritual partnership which is in its thirteenth year. During that time she has co-authored with Gary two New York Times bestsellers (The Heart of the Soul: Emotional Awareness and The Mind of the Soul: Responsible Choice) and co-founded the Seat of the Soul Institute, the premiere organization dedicated to assisting individuals in the alignment of the personality with the soul – the creation of authentic power. She has been in the healing profession for three decades, first as a registered nurse and then as a chiropractor, and at the present time is involved fully in co-creating curricula and events with Gary.
