Meetings with Remarkable Men

An autobiography written by G. I. Gurdjieff originally published in 1963, as well as feature film directed by Peter Brook starring Terrence Stamp. It tells the tale of a young Gurdjieff growing up in a land torn between the old ways[?] and science. The book is part of the trilogy known as All and Everything written by Gurdjieff between 1924 and 1935.

The young Gurdjieff's insatiable curiosity takes him across the world in search of the "Truth". He has many adventures and introduces us to the many people and groups that influenced his thinking. His travels are in company of remarkable men — princes, engineers, doctors, priests. These men help him shape his understanding of life and bring him the needed aid at those moments of discovery that make his journey to another level possible.
