From the back cover: "Albert Hofmann is a true visionary, one of those rare individuals who can follow the intricacies of science to the edge of the known, where it transforms into spirit." - Paul Zuromski, Body, Mind & Spirit Excerpt from book: The mark of true great thinkers has always been their scholarship
and academic accomplishments, as well as the ability to translate
difficult concepts in an accessible form. Dr. Albert Hofmann, Member
of the Nobel Prize Committee, Fellow of the World Academy of
Sciences, Member of the International Society for Plant Research,
and the American Society of Pharmacognosy, is such a man. ... Dr.
Hofmann draws from his immense knowledge of the physical and social
sciences to weave a picture of reality, both objective and
spiritual, that is accessible to all. Touching first on one realm of
conjecture and then another, he draws us into a kinetic but very
controlled dance of reasoning. This wonderful train of thought
spirals around and around, always relevant and revealing, until
finally the dance ends and the entire concept emerges complete and
multi-dimensional. As always, Dr. Hofmann not only leads us to
places in the mind where we have never been before, but he also bids
us to use our new-found insight as a launching area for further
intellectual meditation. (Robert Grayson Hall, Editor's Foreword,
pages vii-viii)
