Title: Mckenna's Ultimate Theory
Review: First of all I must say Kirkus's review of the book was only "okay", in fact it misleads potential customers when it says Mckenna is all for "legalization of all drugs". HA! Any avid fan of Mckenna knows from his speeches that he is not for a populace of drug-users. In fact he feels only a select few should experience mind altering drugs, as most aren't responsible enough. I reiterate... VERY misleading on Kirkus's behalf.But onward.. McKenna, more or less sums up all his beliefs on humanity in this one book. It's his thesis on history more or less. He gives good examples of what the scientific community has shoved under the rug, and what these examples could do for liberating our theological minds. At times though, McKenna has the tendency to lose his audience with phrases like "Trancendent Other". He assumes a lot in such cases, but in the end he does provoke one's mind. Into considering the vast possibilities that remain untouched in Man's early history.
Is the review positive or negative?
