Since then, over 10,000 readings have been given in a trance state for groups and individuals from around the world, answering questions on a virtually unlimited array of topics. The precision of the information has been substantiated by individuals, professionals, and institutions, and those who have received personal readings continue to refer others to Al's work based on the accuracy and integrity of the information given. Al has quietly served individuals and groups for over forty years, dedicating his life totally to this work. His focus now is research on Consciousness and its application in daily life. He currently has 15 books in print.
