Description: The Philosophy of Consciousness Without an Object, volume II is in my opinion, a major landmark in the history of philosophy. In it the author accomplishes the indicated task of removing the obstacles in introception in the realm of philosophic thought. His qualifications for this task are impeccable. As a young man, having completed his studies and already teaching higher mathematics at Stanford University, he renounced the prospective academic career; he had become convinced that this renunciation would facilitate his movement towards realization. This conviction was vindicated on August 7, 1936, when there began the profound series of transformations of consciousness described in Pathways Through to Space. In the ensuing years he subjected these experiments to a thorough philosophical analysis affirming with great power that introception is the crowing empirical experience of philosophy. -- from back cover
