Flotation: A Guide for Sensory Deprivation, Relaxation, & Isolation Tanks Paperback – May 29, 2015

THIS IS NOT A BOOK ABOUT FLOATATION, nor is it a guide for sensory deprivation, relaxation and isolation tanks. In fact it is not a “book” at all; it is a repurposed academic treatise on almost every imaginable topic incidental to flotation tanks.Of the hundred and nine pages approximately 6 pages, YES SIX PAGES, actually discuss flotation tanks. Approximately 49 pages: almost 1/2 of the “book” were devoted to notes, references, external links, further reading and legal acknowledgements for image sources, contributors and licenses.The remaining pages covered such diverse topics as: torture by sensory depravation, negative feedback, biospheres, daydreaming, the use of magnesium sulfate in agriculture, psychedelic experiences and bad trips, alternative medicine, autogenic training, the meaning or meaningless of mantras, Tibetan Buddhism, Taoism, the etymology of the word meditation, self hypnosis, autogenic training and childbirth anesthesia. THIS IS NOT A BOOK ABOUT FLOATATION.
