"In this fiction debut from Steinberg (The Insider’s Guide to HMOs, 1996), Abe Levy, a veteran Southern California philosophy professor, is about to begin his fall semester course on Vedic literature and meditative practices (“Self with a capital ‘S,’ ” as he puts it). His course, presented to a mixture of students he’s taught before and sharp newcomers, covers the Upanishads and the Bhagavad Gita, but the bulk of the class centers on the transcendental meditation (TM) teachings of Maharishi Mahesh Yogi, the celebrated figure who was the guru to the Beatles in the 1960s... This book is mainly structured as an old-fashioned novel of ideas, using the framework of Levy’s class to expound on the history of Eastern philosophy and the anatomy of Vedic meditation. But the book derives its dramatic energy from the fact that although Levy praises how relaxed and settled meditation can make a person, he has little of that tranquility in his personal life... Steinberg expertly keeps this tension percolating in the background while the chapters expand in wonderfully lucid fashion on all kinds of philosophical and religious topics.
A readable and enticing fictional exploration of transcendental meditation and Vedic literature."

"Treworgy has produced an energetic, strangely appealing homage to steady toil in the familiar American tradition of Horatio Alger and Ben Franklin. Industriousness and moxie conquer all { } This modern tale about hard work and faith surmounting all hurdles should inspire readers who believe in the “persistence and prayer” that the author advocates to overcome setbacks."
