In seinem Buch "Die Eroberung der Angst" behandelt Eugene Halliday die Tatsache, das Angst und Furcht zu einem gewissen Grad in den Gemiitern alter Menschen dieser Welt gegenwartig sind. Hier zeigt er uns einen Weg zur Bewaltigung dieses negativeh Gemutszustandes, welcher, bewusst Oder unbewusst, unsere Beziehung zur Welt und zu unseren Mitmenschen beeintrachtigt. Er legt die grundlegende Logik unseres Problems dar und gibt uns praktische Ubungen - einen schrittweisen Prozess - der dem Leser anschaulich erklart wird. Im heutigen mit alien moglichen Angsten erfullten emotionalen, sozialen und politischen Klima ist dies hochst willkommen. Die "Gesammelten Werke" Eugene Hallidays, eine funfzehnbandige Buchreihe, beinhaltet einen Komplex von Ideen, die miteinander in einer widerspruchsfreien und logischen Beziehung stehen und den Leser so vom Anfang bis zum Ende der Buchreihe fiihren. Dieser auf einer Hauptidee, zu der alle anderen Ideen in harmonischer Beziehung stehen, basierende Ideenkomplex formt ein konsistentes Ganzes, gleich einem gesunden menschlichen Korper mit seinen Organen.

David Mahlowe was an actor, writer, TV presenter and interviewer who, in the late 1960s was compared, for his skills in 'the delicate art of TV confrontation', with Malcolm Muggeridge and Bernard Levin. A fine Shakespearean actor, he worked in repertory, film, TV and radio before moving into TV presenting and interviewing. He and his wife Marah Stohl were lead actors for Manchester Library Theatre in the 1950s. In this book he shares the insights which he gained through a lifetime's study of Shakespeare, art, religion and philosophy, in a series of talks which he gave between 1995-1998. Literary executor of the artist Eugene Halliday, with whom he had written Shakespeare King Educator, he founded the Melchisedec Press to publish Halliday's writings. A short illness led to his early death in 1998.

How can we deal with the rapidly increasing pace and complexity of life, fear of terrorism and the threatening state of world affairs, climate breakdown, the confusions of personal relationships-without succumbing to stress, depression and illness? Halliday provides a way to assimilate the shocks of life experiences, so that we might live a more balanced life. The way to achieve this is through reconnecting with the centre of our own being, our consciousness. Halliday sets out not only the nature of this consciousness, but also its relation to the world of phenomena, to the nature of being, and in particular, to mankind. He begins by examining the meaning of terms such as sentience, consciousness and awareness. They are to some degree interchangeable and refer to, `That in and by which we know what we know, and that we know.' If we ask ourselves what this statement means, we can only say that, `We know what we mean. Consciousness is its own evidence', and thus we cannot indicate what we mean by one of these consciousness-related words, `without appealing to that in us, which corresponds with their significance, that is, to that in us which knows that it knows'. Halliday sees a complex structure such as the brain, as `a vehicle for the expression of the complex processes of an [already existing] sentience'. He posits that the ultimate source and origin of our being resides in an absolute field of sentience, and states that the true nature of the self is `consciousness itself'. But, as beings with physical bodies, we are tyrannised by the limitations of our sense organs; by the pursuit of pleasure and the avoidance of pain, by emotional charges in the records of our experiences, so that we often behave in a reactive manner-as if we were no more than animals with no free choice. But, if we remember the nature of our true self, and our source in consciousness, we can free ourselves from this enslavement and become human, that is, capable of free choice and action.
