| THE QUEST FOR THE FOURTH MONKEY: a Thinker's Guide to the Psychic and Spiritual Revolution Sylvia Fraser is one of those people to whom mysterious events often happen - weird coincidences, telepathy, glimpses into the future. In The Quest for the Fourth Monkey.- a Thinker's Guide to the Psychic and Spiritual Revolution (originally published as The Book of Strange), Fraser not only shares these incidents but she tries to understand them. Her research takes her into Western philosophy, Eastern mysticism, quantum and astrophysics, biology, parapsychology and holistic medicine. The result is a richly anecdotal, intelligent yet always accessible exploration of the mysteries that confound and intrigue us. The Quest for the Fourth Monkey was awarded a 1994 American Library Association Booklist Medal.

| Praise for The Quest for the Fourth Monkey: "Fraser's undeniable talent... is everywhere in evidence. Relax and prepare to enjoy a fantastic, sometimes astonishing tale, expertly told." - Quill & Quire "An ambitious work, in which Sylvia Fraser acts as a guide to the catacombs of the collective unconscious. In probing the world of the unseen, Fraser deftly exposes the fallacies of a Western civilization blinkered by rationalism and the twin gods of science and technology." - Joe Fisher, author of Hungry Ghosts |
