Island @ Esalen

topic posted Tue, June 3, 2008 - 3:23 PM by  Dan
An interesting article about Huxley's incorporation of the Esalen culture into his Island novel -- and how the techniques written in the novel had been tried somewhere.

According to Laura Huxley, per the link provided below, the novel laid down a "real and practical path to follow, not just a dream or another impossible religious claim... [a] blueprint for a good society."
