Publisher's summary

Best-selling author Colin Wilson has long pursued the nature of peak experiences, and here are the results of his 40-year investigation. Through a wealth of engaging anecdotes, he reveals how the peak experiences of such historical figures as Yeats, Blake, and Sartre, among others, influenced their work.

Sweatin' with the Newbie!

Wilson rambles on about the power of concentration. Interesting and worth hearing. Disappointing to find the exploratory writer act as guru toward the end of the book. A bizarre moment in the Angry Young Man's career
