Debbie Solomon shows wisdom of a king in new book
By Greg Butler
It’s not an easy goal Debbie Solomon has set for herself; yet, listening to her speak, you get the feeling that if she doesn’t accomplish what she’s set out to do, she’ll at least have an impact.
Solomon said she wants to “lovingly transform mankind” several times in our interview, and she says it with such conviction that you can’t help but wonder . . . read more

Endorsements From Around The World:
"Debra works hard at living a full, rich, meaningful and transformative life. In doing so she brings joy and transcendence to herself and also to others.
These qualites are embodied in her work and in her writings. This, her third book, reflects this. It is a good read."
Lama Glenn Mullin,
Tibetologist, author and
Tantric Buddhism meditation teacher

“Debra Solomon draws on her rich experience and insight in this third volume of her trilogy. Her depth of understanding and sensitivity come through her verse and prose. She has succeeded in communicating a focused reflection on the nature, value and practice of love.”
Wayne Teasdale
author of The Mystic Heart
back
“Debra puts her heart and soul into this work. The book “The Art of Love” speaks to the lover in us all. Even if our voice of love is small this book will awaken love’s volume and strength. The images are tastefully erotic and allow the imagination to fill in the many details that words can never adequately express. A beautiful book that every lover or beloved must have at their fingertips!”
Jhampa Shaneman
co-author of Buddhist Astrology

“Solomon’s focus is on making love and the surrounding concepts accessible to anyone with the curiosity to learn whether it is to strengthen their relationships or their own personal life.”

“Christianity is the religion of incarnation or embodiment, par excellence. Yet for much of its history, Christianity has been ill-at-ease with the human body, and has sometimes -- in the name of "spirituality" -- tried to drive a wedge between spirit and body. Love and Be Loved is a rare book: an example of incarnational spirituality, a joyful celebration of the human body, and a lyrical tribute to love. It is fresh, bold and sensuous. As such, it deserves to be taken as seriously by people who write about incarnation, spirituality, and theology, as it will be by those who believe in love.”
Anthony J. Gittins, C.S.Sp
Professor of Catholic Missiology

A Call to Radical Discipleship

“Her writing comes from evident experience and from deep and creative reflection on what it means to love and be loved. It speaks to the mind and the heart of the reader. No empty words hers, but a real invitation to the reader to get in touch with the deep and central experiences of life. The text is supported by exquisite photos -apt, artistic, and arresting. I found Debra's reflections both meditative and stimulating.”
Joe Mannath, SDB
Associate Professor, University of Madras
author of the bestseller You Surprised Me
(US Edition: the Mystery of Me)

“One of the most vital aspects of this book is that in the course of discussing metaphysical ideas and concepts, Solomon uses language that is understood by the academicians as well as by Joe-Six-Pack.”
