*************** Gibson wrote that book "A season in Heaven" about his experiences on a TM teacher course: http://www-tech.mit.edu/archives/VOL_095/TECH_V095_S0087_P008.txt A Season in Heaven, William Gibson, Atheneum, 1974, 182 pages, $6.95 "William Gibson subtitles his work, "being the log of an expedition after that legendary beast, cosmic consciousness," Within that subtitle lie both the strength and the weakness of the book. A Season in Heaven is well described as a log. It is a thorough description of the events, and more importantly of Gibson's reflections on those events, during his stay at Maharishi International University in Spain. He had come to Spain with his 'family to' visit his son studying Transcendental Meditation under the Maharishi; and he decided to stay and study himself." ------------------------ Yahoo!
