About the author
Gene Basin is the author of The Art of Becoming, a two-volume work published by iUniverse that pairs ideas from the life sciences with occult philosophy and spiritual practice. The first volume lays out the theoretical framework, drawing on biology alongside older esoteric traditions; the second, subtitled Practice, turns to exercises intended to apply that framework to personal transformation. Both books are aimed at readers already familiar with self-development literature who want a more structured, science-referencing take on the subject rather than a purely devotional one. As a self-published work, the series reflects an individual author's synthesis of scientific and spiritual material rather than an academic or clinical study. Readers drawn to books that bridge biology and spirituality, and who want both the reasoning and the exercises, will find the two volumes designed to be read together.
