Initial date [year] is the year I read the book, or discovered it. "Locations" are Univ. Of Michigan library holdings, or other universities with online catalogs. Bibliographic data simply cut ’n’ pasted from library data (library link below.) Library of Congress (LC) #’s and/or Dewey Decimal #’s from source library. My notes / comments follow.

Arrangement of titles is, on this date, 18. Oct. 1998., random. I’ll get to sorting sooner or later. For now the list contains my notes for the work-in-progress I variously call an essay, a book, a thesis, or simply an extended thought. Hence my copyright notice. Other pages (under construction) contain somewhat more coherent thought (I hope.) Presented at no cost to you, but at cost to me, so please click through on banners to help me pay for this silly project.

As time allows I will present complete list of authors with links to the reference or a source. Someday I may even add a graphic or write a bit of music for audio!

1996 (year I read it)

Author: Monroe, Robert A.

Title: Ultimate journey (3rd & last of his books)

Comment: Read large sections of the book standing in bookstores, but never did actually complete it cover to cover until money came in to buy it yesterday (10/20/98.) Had a spectacular dream one night after reading his passage about some sort of cosmic million-person consciousness. In it I met and had a quite "normal" conversation with a "star" that filled my field of vision. I only recall the image and it’s/his last words before I woke: "You’ll see the message many times in your life." To which my waking mind later in the day asked, "But will I ever GET the message?" (understand it.) This book is the one in which Monroe describes the formation of clusters and multiple clusters of minds/souls into grander entities. My personal caveat, though, is to remember that Monroe prided himself in his storytelling ability; to make it all up would be unlikely, but possible & thus worth remembering.

Nonetheless I highly recommend the book, it's content, and urge you to pay attention to the information it contains. Also see his other books and his Monroe Institute and its website.
