  Mary Dyer - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
Dyer joined with Hutchinson and became involved in the what was called the "Antinomian heresy," where they worked to organize groups of women and men to study the Bible in contravention of the theocratic law of the Massachusetts Bay Colony.
Mary Dyer and her husband returned to England with Roger Williams and John Clarke in 1652, where Mary Dyer joined the Religious Society of Friends (Quakers) after hearing the preaching of its founder George Fox and feeling that it was in agreement with the ideas that she and Hutchinson held years earlier.
Mary Dyer continued to travel in New England to preach Quakerism, and was arrested in 1658 in New Haven, Connecticut.

 Geoff Dyer at the Complete Review
Dyer's first book was a study of Berger's work, the first tentative steps in learning from the master.
Berger is different enough from Dyer -- in age, background, interests, focus -- that Dyer could use him as a model without falling into the trap of emulating him too closely.
Dyer is a writer with a working class background but can't neatly be categorized as such.

 Out of Sheer Rage - Geoff Dyer
Dyer is an unusual and oft times irritating man -- at least in the persona he describes in his book.
Vacillating, waffling, lackadaisical, Dyer is a fun comic figure, though especially in the early stages of the book he overdoes it and the reader's urge to smack him upside the head and just get him to get on with it becomes overpowering.
Stylistically Dyer imitates the master (the frequent repetition of a thought with slight variations for emphasis, for example), and Dyer displays a similar rage (aimed at similar targets) -- and he shares Bernhard's humor, though there is not quite the same weight and oppressive darkness to it.

 Wayne Dyer - Audio Books on CD and MP3, DVD Video   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
Wayne W. Dyer, affectionately called the "father of motivation" by his fans, is one of the most widely known and respected people in the field of self-empowerment.
A true Dyer classic is "The Power Of Intention", in which Dyer puts forth the idea that intention is a force in the universe that allows the act of creation to take place.
Dyer starts out with a challenge from A Course in Miracles: "You don't have any problems; you only think you do." He goes on to illustrate how the mind can control both physical and emotional well-being, all one has to do is create healthy, positive molecules and move away from negative thoughts.

 Charles Wisner Barrell - The Real Sir Edward Dyer
Evidently through Leicester's backing, the Queen in 1570 bestowed upon Edward Dyer "the stewardship of the manor and woods of Woodstock, Oxford, and its members, for life, and the rangership and portership of the park." This was considered a choice plum of patronage and Dyer was much envied for his good fortune.
We have already shown that Dyer was also engaged in the political concerns of the Earl of Essex in 1598 and later, quite evidently filling the role of an informer for the Cecil party.
Dyer was actually a prominent Parliamentary figure during these years of alleged withdrawal "from active political life," besides being engaged in political intrigue which involved high stakes and important personages.

 World Renowned Author Dr Wayne W. Dyer
Dyer identifies the attributes of the all-creating universal mind of intention as creative, kind, loving, beautiful, expanding, endlessly abundant, and receptive, explaining the importance of emulating this source of creativity.
While his tone is always reverent, Dyer's interpretations occasionally sound flat and obvious--as if he is dumbing down the language for his audience, rather than elevating readers to a higher consciousness (or at least a higher education).
Dyer brings you this extraordinary true story about two ordinary people whose lives were touched by miracles—and he shows us what these miracles can teach all of us.
