Peter Sjstedt-Hughes has brought together a collection of essays that on first glance seem to be about disparate subjectsthe process metaphysics of A. N. Whitehead, the philosophy and phenomenology of psychedelic experience, and the ontological worldview of panpsychism. Yet, the book is thematically united and Sjstedt-Hughes impressively weaves these philosophical threads together to produce a rare fabric, a fabric of universal sentience that comes together in a refreshingly new worldview in his final chapter. The book has significant depth yet is written in as non-obscure a fashion as any book that deals with such abstruse matters can be.
