| ALCHEMICAL SEX [E J Gold] "The unknown" to paraphrase E J Gold, "is unknown because it does not lend itself to being known"; what must not be spoken is in fact that which cannot be articulated. Wedged among life's supreme unknowns is the field of sexual alchemy, and Alchemical Sex, Mr Gold's elucidation of those portions of this subject that can actually be confined to print, is a laudably serious attempt to make some portion of the unknown, known. From his first curious predictions to the arcana of 'evocation' vs 'invocation', the book puffs a welcome breath of fresh air into a world that is currently wholly dominated by " species which features as its main attribute a radically disconnected multiple personality with no control over which persona is active at any given moment." -- Robert Svoboda, author of 'Aghora: At the Left Hand of God'. { 314pp, 155x230mm, June 2003; PB, £26.99, 0895561379:9780895561374 , IPG (Gateways Books & Tapes) } |

And that is why a book of the dead is not only for the organically dead but for all voyagers -- no matter what dimensional level of the labyrinth they may be exploring at the moment. If we are able to make this voyager's book our own, we may be able to bring its transdimensional technology into the macrodimensional world beyond organic life. { 169pp, 222x140mm, December 1993; PB, £10.99, 0895560518:9780895560513 , IPG (Gateways Books & Tapes) } |

Drawing on the personal testimony of many who tried it, including Burgess Meredith, Gregory Bateson, E J Gold, and Jerry Rubin, the evidence shows how, by eliminating the presence of shifting physical input patterns, the tank allows participants to dive deep into their subconscious and focus immediately on their inner perceptions.

| HOW TO WRITE GREAT SCIENCE FICTION : Working Journal & Best-Known Classics [Horace L Gold] There has never been a collection of stories quite like this. It was originally published 1955 in America, and 1965 in Great Britain. Since then, it has been a highly treasured rare book in the collection of connoisseurs of Silver Age and Golden Age classic Science Fiction. As a collection of SF stories, this book is excellent in its own right, but its added attraction -- a unique feature -- is the author's editorial notes on each story, taken from his working journal. These notes constitute a 'how to do it' on writing science fiction stories, from one of the pioneers of the genre. The stories themselves are taken from about fifteen years, during which H L Gold wrote for many editors and edited the most widely read SF magazine in the world: Galaxy. The author has compiled many collections and written many stories but this anthology is unique not only within his own work, but also in the world of Science Fiction in general. For the aspiring author, and for the seasoned, professional writer alike, these short stories and sharp commentaries have been a treasure of inspiration for half a century. This book is an excellent resource for every class in creative writing. { 264pp, 155x230mm, November 2001; PB, £16.99, 0895561255:9780895561251 , IPG (Gateways Books & Tapes) } |

This new edition includes chapter commentaries by students and practitioners who have used the suggested techniques, and features a new introduction by the author. { 200pp, 155x230mm, September 2008; PB, £11.50, 0895561689:9780895561688 , IPG (Gateways Books & Tapes) } |

| LIFE IN THE LABYRINTH [Gold] Unknowingly we voyage in a labyrinth, a macro-dimensional maze of living electrical force, cloaked by a layer of ordinary life.

| SEVEN BODIES OF MAN [Gold] Across the centuries comes the rumour that Man, (that is, the human) as we know him or her, is not a completed being. There are other dimensions besides the human, and other bodies that may be formed to function in these dimensions. What are such bodies made of?

Information and insights about the tank are finally floating to the surface; these talks are important keys to further opening this gateway..." -- Michael Hutchison, author of The Book of Floating. "I slip into the tank and close the door -- shutting off the last I'll know of light and noise. I can't see or hear a thing. It's a bit disconcerting, not knowing if my eyes are open or shut, but as for the unearthly lack of sound, I find I miss life's constant background noise about as much as one might miss a toothache..." -- Cosmopolitan. { 139pp, 185x215mm, June 1996; PB, £11.99, 0895560712:9780895560711 , IPG (Gateways Books & Tapes) } |
