I was surprised when I heared about this book. It was surprising because it involves psychadelic mushrooms, a Dutch artist channling an ancient Egyptian priest and a doctor taking the whole thing seriously. The story revolves a doctor who is trying to understand why a soft spoken man falls into trances when he touches an scarab dating back to ancient Egypt. The doctor is also trying to figure out why the man writes and speaks the ancient language in that trane. The doctor makes some interesting finds trying to enravel the strange "trances". One of the finds is the first medically recognized hallucinagenic mushroom, once thought to never actually exist. The book explores paranormal esp through tests under a controlled environment. It becomes an addictive read, I became facinated with the scientific questioning of paranormal events. It adds a level of intrigue not found in most subjects. Is this story a fraud or is there something to actually consider about the paranormal. I found it to be facinating, totally engaiging for the imagination.

Takes minimal effort to get into this classic - I fully enjoyed every page and highly recommend it.
