LUCID DREAMER

Summary: The gospel of lucid dreaming.
Review: A book which transmits information to all your senses not only to a word processor in your head!

This is how a book should be about anything. It is full of information and with illustrations on art level. It clearly presents lucid dreaming and its relation to reality, from author who knows and loves to share his knowledge.

Summary: The best book you can get on dreaming!
Review: I would give this book 10 stars if I could. This is not another new age make a buck/feel good rag. This is a comprehensive examination of the phenomenon of dreaming. But it not only examines dreaming, it examines the very nature of reality. I have had many extremely profound and quite long lucid dreams and I can tell you from personal experience that Malcom knows exactly what he is talking about in this book. His description of the experience and how having a lucid dream forces you to question what we take for reality is right on the mark. This book gives many paths and techniques. Why it went out of print is a mystery. If you see a copy, even for 50 or 60 dollars, buy it, you'll never regret it.

Summary: Outstanding
Review: Not your average Lucid Dreamer type book. Malcom doesn't patronise the reader with the standard 'a black cat means.. , at times I read books and feel where is the beef, not so this one. Apart from the absolutely wonderful layout and pictures he also takes the reader on a journey through the 'history' of the traditions of lucidity in the dreamplane, from the aboriginal dreamtime to tibetan yoga , Shamens, sorcerors, intiation techniques and secret societys, many references too numerous to list here and a myriad of parctical techniques , many I have never heard of before .

Then he brings things bang up to date and with the interface of the newer sciences ,REM research morphic fields, David Bohm,paradigm shifts, the nature of perception , consciousness , holograms ..and a gallery of splendid plates of the artworks of Zaborov,Rousseau,Schwarzer,Magritte,Blake and a host of other artists.

A real first class book , given the drivel that is out there in the market I don't know how this ever went out of print.If you come across a second hand copy grab it, don't argue about the price.

Summary: A book to change your life
Review: The Lucid Dreamer may be the one book that has altered life for me in a way that no other phsycology book or writing has. The practices used in this guide are absolutely what was needed to heighten my dream awareness. I would strongly encourage anyone who has a thirst to become active in their dreams to dive into this book and just experience the change that may happen.
