About the Book

About the Author

Richard Shining Thunder Francis -- a teacher, psychospiritual advisor, life-design consultant, and practicing mystic, was reared in the extremist cult Jehovah's Witnesses. Prohibited from exploring other religions, he resigned. The founder of agapology, the science of love-psychology, he is a central spokes-person for the Universal Love Movement-- not a religion, but a Way-- which challenges society to live by the principles of compassion, acceptance, and tolerance. Founder of the Institute of Agapology and Metaphysics in Cincinnati, Ohio, where he hosts the weekly radio-program "Heartmind," he is the author of several books, including Love Is God, Tao Now, Superlove, and Jehovah, Good-bye. He has given seminars and talk-show-interviews all over the U.S. and in Europe. Former managing editor of Lovespirit and Cosmic Visions magazines, he has advised Time, Newsweek, and "Sixty Minutes," and has published in the mainstream and metaphysical presses.
