This book is a mine of information, and a lot of it will make some sensitive readers fret at how the public is being duped by the corporate-controlled media let alone by their governments. At least to relieve the tension, the editors have liberally interspersed Tom Tomorrow's brilliantly satirical political car- toons throughout the book. Buchanan explains the subtleties and nuances, the protocols and pitfalls of work- ing with CRV, and shares personal details of the ways CRV has utterly changed his life for better and/or worse. And yet, with all his RV experiences—exploring military tar- gets, getting into the minds of world leaders to discern their intentions, identifying drug- smuggling boats, entering a Russian particle beam experiment—he discovered there's a pinnacle of CRV called Perfect Site Integration (PSI). In his eight-and-a-half years with the unit, he only had nine such experiences and has only had four or five since—that's how rare these events are—and he assures us that PSI is "one of the greatest experiences a CRVer can ever have". There's intriguing information about how the conscious and subconscious minds work, about what happens after death, and about the nature of time. Plus, there's a substantial sourcebook section that explains the key ter- minologies of the territory and gives practi- cal exercises to help anyone interested to train themselves in the basics.
