I was reading _The Host_ by Meyer (sp?) and greatly enjoying it, eager to find out how it progressed. In the middle of this page-turner, I picked up _Levels of Energy_ and abandoned _The Host_ temporarily until I had finished Dodgson's work. (What luxury, to be in the middle of two can't-put-down works!) _Levels of Energy_ is a way of appreciating spiritual truths I'd not been exposed to (much) before. It has much food for thought in its ratings--some of which seem untrue to me, but Dodgson readily admits his fallibility. But these details aside, I was very interested in his comparisons of spiritual teachings and teachers. The book contains many suggestions for raising your level of energy which are practical; some of them have worked for me in the past, and I'm interested in trying others. As another reviewer suggested, this is the type of book which can be reread several times with new insights each time, because each time you may be at a different level on Dodgson's scale. I wish Dodgson had included more about how he came up with his ratings and how others could reach the same supposedly objective conclusions. Don't let this book's lack of editing deter you from reading it. It is quite readable despite the stylistic errors, and there is a valuable perspective here.
