Description
Beyond the Blindfold is a life-changing book about seeing the world in a whole new way.
Ten years in the making, it has also become like a vaccine against foolish and embarrassing behaviour - mostly my own - and for that I'm grateful. To avoid what could be dry and boring, this work is also intensely personal and draws on lifetime of study and reflection allowing you, the reader, to experience your own journey through my lens. Sometimes deadly serious and sometimes for fun, the 52 parable-style essays hope to entertain, enlighten and ideally change how you view the world forever!

Advance Praise
“If you like Garrison Keillor, but wish he thought more deeply about things, you’ll like Vince Taylor’s ornery, wise take on life … a pick-me-up to pick up when you need a dollop of tactical shrewdness in your day. Read a chapter a week for a year and you’ll be different!
“Cogently written, this book plows the fields of the reader’s mind, turning up fresh soil to root new ways of looking into our beliefs and reactions to the world. Taylor’s premise is that our core context, the things that make us frame words and events to fit our beliefs, can be skewed; seeing clearly and interpreting accurately means dealing with the context shaping our interpretation of the world.
“Moving through chapters organized by the four seasons, we go from Spring’s airy, entertaining views all the way to Winter, with its final, hard questions. I really liked that there was no “You should” attitude in the book, just deeply thought observations that take the reader all the way to the end of the examined life. Highly recommended.”
