Bücher von Alexander Randall 5th

What is insanity? What does it look like? How does it sound? Are taste and touch different? The author worked under the late Dr. Humphry Osmond to investigate the inner world of the insane. He read autobiography¿s of the insane and interviewed hundreds of people in asylums, prisons for the criminally insane and members of Schizophrenics Anonymous. The author created a radio documentary exploring this inner world. This book is the script of the documentary plus supporting documents that display the amazingly rich and diverse world in which insane people live. It seems remarkably like the world of religious mystics and visionary leaders... How do we know what is insane and what is so brilliant that it exceeds our understanding? How does society separate the ravings of lunatics from the wisdom of visionaries? Start by understanding the world as seem from inside insanity.

Randall's tale is a saga of invention, entrepreneurship, sudden sharp turns and jumping off a cliff with no parachute; an exploration of family lineage and ancestor's heritage that give a picture of one life in the era when personal computers and the Internet were being born.
