Lancaster has written many articles and chapters for his colleagues’ books. A few of his books include ‘Mind Brain and Human Potential’. He received the Scientific and Medical Network Best Book Award for his work on 'The Essence of Kabbalah' and ‘Approaches to Consciousness: The Marriage of Science and Mysticism’, about which Chief Rabbi Professor Jonathan Sacks commented: "With formidable erudition and the widest of perspectives, Les Lancaster has written a challenging and potentially ground-breaking book on the relationship between scientific and mystical ideas of human consciousness. A humane scholar in the great tradition of William James, his work deserves to be read and discussed widely".[3][4]
