Bill Minutaglio & Steven L. Davis<\/strong>
\nThe adventures of Timothy Leary\u2019s odyssee from Harvard to hell and back make for a racy read.

The \u201cLSD Apostle\u2019s\u201d escape from jail took him to Switzerland, Algeria and Afghanistan and back to jail in California, where Charles Manson was his neighbor.

Tuning the Human Biofield \u2013 Healing with Vibrational Sound Therapy<\/h3>\t\t\t

Eileen Day McKusick<\/strong>
\nWhen Eileen McKusick began offering sound therapy in her massage practice she soon discovered she could use tuning forks to locate and hear disturbances in the energy field, or biofield, that surrounds each of us. She found these energetic disturbances correlated with the emotional and physical traumas her clients had experienced throughout their lives, the biofield acting as a record of pain, stress and trauma from gestation onward.

Joe Hill \u2013 A Biographical Novel<\/h3>\t\t\t

Wallace Stegner\u00a0<\/strong>
\nStegner retells the story of the bard who became the stuff of fiction for the alleged murder of a Salt Lake City businessman. Organiser, rebel, singer of Labor Songs who fought relentllessly for Trade Unions, Joel Hill was a peerless fighter in frequently violent battles between organised labour and industry. This is a full-bodied portrait of both the man & the myth: from his entrance into the short-lived Industrial Workers of the World union to his trial, imprisonment & final martyrdom.

Exit Stage Left. The Snagglepuss Comics\u00a0<\/h3>\t\t\t

Mark Russell & Steve Pugh (illustrations)\u00a0<\/strong>
\nIn Russell and Feehan\u2019s hands, Hanna-Barbera\u2019s audacious pink mountain lion is given a new, Flintstonian shading: this Snagglepuss is more stylish, more fuchsia, more unapologetic than his original cartoon iteration. He\u2019s a successful, adored playwright, smooth and confident even if the world around him is on fire. He\u2019s also gay, and living as a closeted homosexual mountain lion in 1953 is awful – all the more since success has made him a target.

The New Psychedelic Revolution \u2013 The Genesis of the Visionary Age\u00a0<\/h3>\t\t\t

James Oroc\u00a0<\/strong>
\nEntheogens are powerful tools of self-discovery; Oroc studies the works and lives of Albert Hofmann, Terence McKenna and Alexander Shulgin in order to gain deeper insight into the history and future of psychedelics and how to cultivate a positive attitude towards the dreamtime that could transform our culture. The author is an active part of the psychedelic renaissance, a revival that has been a long time coming though it never was a long time gone.
