968.0. "ONE..the book" by DNEAST::CHRISTENSENL () Fri Jan 27 1989 07:40

    
    Interesting: YCYOR, the nature of reality, creative visuialization,
who are we and why did we get here, and all manner of similiar questions
are addressed in Richard Bach's new book _One_.  I have just started
it and am about 1/3 the way through..  I also "cheated" and read the
last few pages....hehehe.

Though I find it, as a novel, rather simplistic and flawed in places
there are some concepts which Bach writes in story form that I have
been trying for years to put into words..  His approach to  simultaneous
alternate realities, the main theme of the book, is a very satisfying
analogy to me.  His notion of choice being the act of creation of
one's own reality is my view also.

The book is light and easy to read; meant for reading by the general 
public.  I hope it generates more questions than it attempts to answer.

    	I was informed today that Mr. Bach did a book called
    "Illusions", which was along the same line.
