Industry Reviews
"Whether you agree that the experiment was worth trying or feel that the author is knocking on doors that should be left untouched, you are likely to admit that a challenge is forcibly put, that ideas are freshly and prodigally presented, and that even to try to answer Mr. Huxley honestly might well be a valuable experience in itself for the hostile reader."
San Francisco Chronicle - J. H. Jackson (02/18/1954)
"The comparisons which [Huxley] draws between the kind of consciousness that he experienced and the vision of certain artists and mystics throw some new light on the nature of pure perception."
Jackson
