Paperback. Condition: New. The parallels between the human brain and computers are easy to see today. But in the 1950s, when John Lilly developed his theory of the human bio-computer, this was a dramatic new way of viewing humans. Rooted in his extensive knowledge of neurophysiology, neuroanatomy, and electronics, and developed through personal experimentation in the sensory isolation tank that he invented, Lilly's manual shows how to step out of the mind-body and find out who we really are.

Paperback. Condition: New. First Trade Paper Edition. In this long-out-of-print counterculture classic, Dr. John C. Lilly takes readers behind the scenes into the inner life of a scientist exploring inner space, or far-out spaces," as Lilly called them.

It also includes glimpses into Lilly's friendship with such 1960s' notables as Oscar Ichazo, Ram Dass, Timothy Leary, Albert Hofmann, Fritz Perls, and Claudio Narajo. Written for the non-specialist, Center of the Cyclone shows an important, modern thinker at his most personal and profound.
