Can you recommend a book for me

[eyeoneblack]

Hi, EWO. That's a really hard question. I could recommend Blavatsky's Isis Unveiled (two volumes), and is a real intellectual dissertation. It'd keep him busy, that's for sure .
No, I think something not quite as heady for now would be better. A few years ago I wanted to introduce LD to a friend of mine and selected Exploring the World of Lucid Dreaming by LaBerge and Rheingold. I had good reasons for choosing it at the time but I've forgotten.
Might be best to let him Google for books on the topic and choose for himself. My experience often is (and it's rather uncanny) that a book will 'call to me'. At any rate, if I'm disappointed with it, it's no one's fault but mine. The wrong book might turn him away for good.
I obtained a 25-volume set of Joseph Conrad novels. So I arbitrarily chose one and read it. It was 'ok'. So I read another and I didn't like it at all. But, I am very reluctant to waste 25 books by a famous author and grabbed one more. And it was astounding! So you see, it is difficult if not dangerous to recommend a book 'cause you don't know how it will go..
Best of luck to you.

[If I remember correctly, the popular books on the subject (Monroe, Bulhman, Bruce etc are inspiring (Jurgen Zcwie (sp) is my favorite)) are inspiring but not intellectual per se, and the LaBerge/Rheingold seemed to me more on the investigative, expository sort.]
