    American Guru is a multifaceted account of life in the contemporary spiritual community known as EnlightenNext, and the controversial teaching methods of its New York-born founder, self-proclaimed guru Andrew Cohen. With contributions from several of Cohens former students, William Yenner recalls the thirteen-year trajectory of his career as a leader and manager in Cohens community--his early days as an idealistic seeker, his years of service on EnlightenNexts Board of Directors, his ultimate disillusionment and departure,and his efforts to make sense of his experiences as a once-devoted follower of a Teacher of Evolutionary Enlightenment. With wit and insight, Yenner and his colleagues have produced a riveting cautionary tale on the dangers of authoritarian spirituality, and an insiderscase study on the promises and pitfalls of postmodern discipleship. William Yenners courageous exposé, American Guru, is a powerful reminder that all of our tendencies toward idealization of dharma teachers must be carefully examined. -William Morgan, Psy.D., member of the Institute for Meditation and Psychotherapy,co-author of Mindfulness and Psychotherapy William Yenners true, uncensored-and finally ungagged-moving personal story, in combination with the powerful reflections, recollections and contributions of other former community members, makes American Guru an essential source document for the study and understanding of authoritarian spiritual sects. -Hal Blacker, former editor of EnlightenNext magazine American Guru is not a mean-spirited book. It is, rather, a refreshingly honest one. -David Christopher Lane, Ph.D., Professor of Philosophy, Mt. San Antonio College Check out the book online at www.americanguru.net
