Talk:Intelligence Intensification/Introduction

This was added to the book, I moved it to the discussion (--DanielJanzon 14:56, 6 Nov 2004 (UTC)):

Cut the Crap: Example; (above paragraph without crap)

Book will contain zero extra wordage

Information will be compact, concise, to - point.


 * Of course there is an weighing between compactness and readability. My point was rather that the book should not contain "affirmations that these techniques will work even for you and so on" and "No unscientific testimonials". I believe that a book written like above would not be very valuable. Unfortunately a lot of rambling has been introduced in the book. Maybe in a couple of years the book will be better.

PsychoNautica
hello, I am interested in, and an expert on, the Topic of "Psychonautics." (And by this, I do not mean merely the drug using justification)

I may be interested in adding to your book, it certainly sounds like the direction i have thought of taking.

The Title of the book has some distinct advantages and disadvantages over the standard Title for the science as I understand it.

cons;
 * Sounds a little new agey
 * is two words long

Pros reader.
 * may have a better ability to communicate content to the average
 * Doesn't carry with it the luggage of habit justifying drug users.
