Summary: Incorporate paradigm shifting thought into everyday life!
Review: This book is the best practical guide to derailing your ingrained neural pathways. It is rather like a 'How to guide' for paradigm shifting at will or Mindfulness training for the Western Mind. If you want to investigate the roots of perception, this is the book for you.

Summary: On your way to free thought (well, free-er thought anyway)
Review: This book seems, to me, an excellent expanded followup to the concepts intitially presented in Wilsons' Prometheus Rising. In tandem, the two books really do help one to gain knowledge of the brain software that interprets the information that forms our varying tunnels of reality. The personal gains one percieves from the knowledge presented in these books will be just that, very personal, depending on ones' experience. So further explanations of the fruits contained within this work and its predecessor will be fairly useless. That being said, I highly recommend this book for the potential fruits one could reap.
As for the review from Mike the Physicist from CA. Haha..hehe..A perfect example of the narrowness of perception about which Wilson teaches. Apparently, being a "professional physicist" could not evaluate the content on anything else but the presentation of the physics concepts. However, this is not a physics book. It is a psychology/philosophy book with proofs that reach into concepts of modern physics. And in this regard, the book succeeds perfectly. I have read the works of Neils Bohr(a physicist and primary reference for Wilson) as well as many of the books that "mike from CA" has referenced. And no where does Wilson falter in his presentation of the concepts. Nor does the book venture into concepts beyond the grasp of the laymen, thus succeeding in its mission. However, maybe failing for Mike who needed a dissertation to satisfy his professionally induced ego. geez.

Summary: Old bob exposes his knowledge
Review: This is the follow up to "prometheus rising and I have to say a damn good book. The author alternates between explaining the absurdly obvious and inherently esoteric while splicing the text with great anecdotes and forceful humour. This makes easier reading for what would otherwise be a very challenging subject. RAW has his own inimitable stlye which fans of previous books will no doubt enjoy. The only reason I haven't given this book the full 5 stars is I think it falls just short of the mark of the standard set by "prometheus rising" and is presented in a very similar manner. RAW has again presented some great perception altering prose and continues to be a forefather of his field

Summary: Do us All a Favor and Read This Book
Review: Three important words: "read this book." Three much more important words: "Do the exercises." Some readers may have already encountered the main principles of this work, either in other books by RAW or by studying general-semantics; I still think it a valuable epitome of some very useful ideas. If nothing else, I think it would reduce the number of Internet arguments that start with "As you could plainly see if you had simply READ what I WROTE ..." which would certainly rank as an improvement in MY world.I approach anything with "Quantum" in the title with a skeptical eye, as I feel the current fashion for explaining everything from ghosts to the impossibility of artificial intelligence by reference to quantum uncertainty, quantum coupling, etc., could use either a strong dose of real physics or just a good long rest. On the other hand, many people still live in the clockwork universe of Newton or even the commonsense world of Aristotle, years after the work of Einstein, Schroedinger, Heisenberg, Goedel, "etc.," revealed the cracks in the foundations of classical and naive physics and mathematics, so anything that raises awareness of these changes in the intellectual climate will have some good effects down the line. I once referred to general-semantics as "21st Century Zen Epistemology," which might fit _Quantum Psychology_ as well. RAW has laid out a series of observations and a program of exercises that can, quite simply, make your mind work better, unless you are among the one in a scadzillion who has already completed the work. Please don't fool yourself on this point! Read the book anyway.
Do the work. Do us all a favor, first of all yourself.
