Reiki and You: Awakening the Healer Within
A very educated author. Margaret Lee Lyles has a broad and varied personal background, and it shows through in her book.  It addresses the potential conflict some might see between religion (trusting God) and Reiki (doing it yourself), and she offers thoughts about Reiki that I have seen nowhere else.  Her historical background of Reiki also is quite detailed and interesting.  An aside:  I loaned this book to my mother, who has kept it and shared it with her friends.  She refuses to give it back. --Nick Sortal, Sun Sentinel, Florida -- www.Reiki-Bookshop.com, August 2004--This text refers to theHardcoveredition.
