Very clear-cut analysis of a difficult theme

I found this book to be a very clear and insightful critique of the New Age Movement. The author gave a wonderful synthesis of its main ideas and teachings. This is not an easy matter, as the New Age Movement has many facets to it, and many of its ideas are ambiguous to say the least. He goes on to show how New Age interpretations about Jesus, His life and Christianity contradict the facts as well as the Bible. He gives numerous quotes to support his assertions. I was heavily involved in the New Age Movement for 16 years and found it to be devastating. I don't think I could have done as good a job evaluating this movement. I come into frequent contact with New Agers, and the ideas in this book will help me talk with them in a more informed manner, i.e. with proofs, quotes, etc. One thing I found confusing however was his use of the phrase "orthodox Christian". I am not sure what he means by this. I am an Eastern Orthodox Christian, so I found the term a bit offensive, as I don't think he means that.
