Imagine trying to make sense of an amalgam of Timothy Leary's eight neurological circuits, G.I. Gurdjieff's self-observation exercises, Alfred Korzybski's general semantics, Aleister Crowley's magical theorems, and the several disciplines of Yoga not to mention Christian Science, relativity, quantum mechanics, and many other approaches to understanding the world around us. That is exactly what Robert Anton Wilson does in Prometheus Rising. In short, this is a book about how the human mind works and what you can do to make the most of yours.
The hilariously unfortunate true stories of my drunken mayhem, the sex, girls, and trainwrecks of my life, and navigating the stupidity of the internet and real-world BDSM community.

Thought you've found the dumbest girl in the world? Wondered what happens when you get pepper sprayed in the balls? Stopped caring about anything but having fun? I have. And the stories are hilarious.
