"Michael's book Tao of Surfing is one of the most Visceral experiences I have had. When I read the book I was hooked...it made me feel that I was actually at these locations. It just slowed time. It made me appreciate being in the moment. Tao of Surfing is an amazing piece of literary material."
-- Alex Carig, Award Winning Director of "A Long Road to Tao."

"I think it is beautifully written with many instances of striking images and metaphors. I doubt if there is another book available that develops in such a sustained way the application of Taoism as a philosophy. You have trained your senses to be especially sharp and to experience the moment without intervening language or thought, and thus you are able later to describe the moment in such detail and vividness, reminiscent of the philosophy of the impressionist painters in France."
-- Dr. Paul C. L. Tang: Chairman of the Cal. State University Long Beach Philosophy Department
