The true nature of time and reality....

This is the second time that I have felt compelled to read this book. It is an important, virtually unique, work. The nearest works to it that I can think of would be Phillip K. Dick's Exegesis and Harpur's Daimonic Reality. However, The Secret School is definately the best discussion of the true nature of time and reality that I have found. Streiber is correct about the nature and importance of Joy, opposed to happyness...

A wonderful description of Whitley's incredible experiences!

Mr. Strieber has provided us with yet another excellent work describing some of his experiences with aliens.

As usual I'm left wanting to read more!

I just finished "Secret School" and I'm left wanting the experience of hearing those words to continue. Mr. Strieber has moved from a chronicler of his experiences to a teacher for all of us. Like a word on the tip of my tongue, I could almost begin to grasp the emotional journey Strieber has taken. I must admit to some jealousy that he has had this incredible experience, but I'm comforted that he believes we can all discover...

A fascinating challenge of the current concept of reality!

Whitley Strieber's "The Secret School" is his latest contribution to nonfiction which began with alien encounters but has become increasingly metaphysical. He stretches the limits of what we perceive as reality through nine "lessons" learned at "secret school" attended in his ninth summer. Fascinating ideas are presented in an entertaining and concrete manner which will leave the reader puzzling over the place of humanity...
