I loved this book! It was like a breath of fresh air to the jaded cobwebs of my mind. Unlike the sanitized and banal stimuli (visuals, thoughts, mass media, current academic inquiry, etc.) that surrounds daily life today, this book reminded me of the mysteries that remain within the world. It was repetitive at times but it is such a large book that it's excusable. There appears to be solid reasoning for the proposals in the book. The presentation of the dark side of academic bullying/blackballing was astute, and reminded me of the necessity for our "experts" to put aside their egos to entertain new thought.
