Do you have secret information from otherworldly beings which will
transform our understanding of almost everything? Whitley Streiber, author of
The Secret School: Preparation for Contact, knows the feeling. But for all its

transformed into something more interesting, try Carlos Castenada. Published by
Simon & Schuster (shame on them), £15.99, ISBN 0684819325.
