Summary: Physics, Philosophy and Pot
Comment: The world you think you know doesn't exist. Everything you thought was there isn't. Everything you thought you had done, you haven't. Your past is different, but your future is the same. Welcome to "The Universe Next Door," created by Robert Anton Wilson. This universe is filled with what could have been, and even what should have been. Here, the missing plutonium that a terrorist group turns into nuclear devices, the Mad Fishmonger, the future America known as Unistat, and the hero Benny "Eggs" Benedict are all a part of reality.
While Eggs Benedict writes for the New York Times, the diminutive Markhov Chaney spreads his radical views under the guise of "The Mgt." Juan Tootreego bobbles through life while Cagliostro the Great pleases everyone in their own individual way. We follow each of these people as they meet up with several peculiar characters such as Mary Margaret Wildeblood who is enjoying his newfound life as a woman and Hassan i Sabbah X, leader of the marijuana savvy group, the Illuminatus, and the President of Unistat. As they make their way through life in a confused state, they can't help but wonder what could have been, in the universe next door.
In short, I would honestly recommend The Universe Next Door by Robert Anton Wilson for those who want to learn something without trying, those who want to get a good laugh, and those who are looking for the answer to the question, "what could have been?"

Summary: Quantum Conspiracy Theories and um... sex
Comment: This is the kind of material that bounces off your brain cells long after the last page is turned. You don't have to be a genius to read this book, but I kept thinking, "Robert Anton Wilson had to be a *genius* to write this." Multiple plot lines across many dimensions, a version of history from the age of Atlantis that is supported by a wealth of 2 and 2's that were never previously put together (why was John Dillinger supposedly seen in multiple places at once? Because he was quadruplets), and enough physics and sex to entertain on many levels. If you want an intelligent and captivating read, this is it
