Hey Rick, my agent sent me this.  It's a notice of a book coming out sometime this year, from Viking.  Do you know the guy?  

THE MAHARISHI EFFECT: SEEKING ENLIGHTENMENT, IMMORTALITY, AND YOGIC FLYERS IN MIDDLE AMERICA by Geoff Gilpin
 
Geoff Gilpin was a student at Maharishi University in Fairfield, Iowa during its heyday. In 2001, he returned to the campus to see what happeend to his old friends and the Movement itself.  What he finds there is a mix of the familiar and the pecuiliar — a quirky blend of faith, pseudo-science, and cultish behavior in America's Corn Belt.  The Maharishi effect is the story of a religious movement gone awry, and one Boomer's nostalgic journey back to his spiritual roots.  Gilpin is a computer consultant who received an MFA in creative writing from Goucher College.
