Synopsis
"One of the most intellectually exciting of all Ian Watson's books."--"The Times" "An science fiction writer of powerful intellect-the natural successor to H. G. Wells."--"The Encyclopedia of Science Fiction" "A marvelous and moving piece of speculation on the nature of UFOs. A supremely skillful narrative...A tremendous sense of conviction."--"Spectator " An unusually brilliant and mind-stretching metaphysical quest from one of the most exciting talents in science fiction. John Deacon uses hypnosis to help his patients reach altered states of consciousness. One of his subjects, Michael Peacocke, is unusually susceptible and in their first session together, Michael recalls a "close encounter"--in both senses of the term--with an alien. Deacon, skeptical of the story, dismisses it as an adolescent sexual fantasy. But then strange things begin to happen and Deacon is forced to reconsider. Could UFOs be symbols projected from the collective unconscious? Are they messages from the biomatrix? Does the mind have the ability to project objects and people that are physically real...yet somehow illusory? A wonderfully fascinating, mind-bending voyage. Ian Watson is author of "Martian Inca," " The Embedding," and "The Jonah Kit.", 'A marvellous and moving piece of speculation on the nature of UFOs. A supremely skilful narrative...A tremendous sense of conviction' Spectator, John Deacon uses hynosis to research altered states of consciousness. One of his subjects, Michael Peacocke, is unusually susceptible and in their fist session together he recalls a Close Encounter. Deacon is sceptical of UFOs and dismisses the story as an adolescent sexual fantasy. But then inexplicable things happen and Deacon is forced to reconsider. Could UFOs be symbols projected from the collective unconscious? Are they messages from the biomatrix? Does the mind have the ability to project tulpas, objects and people which are physically real yet somehow illusory?

    Item arrived on time and was in good packaging. It was NOT as described regarding the content. It was described as having a letter from Poul Anderson in the correspondence section, but instead it only had a brief mention about delaying inclusion of a letter by Paul Andersen (different guy altogether) until a later issue. Other content made the purchase worthwhile.
