The Pinball Effect

Created: 01/08/08
Another great book of historical effects based on random change. I will try to connect the gates of knowledge to the changes in transition. Others have told me that it is not an easy book to follow, let alone to understand. The book will compliment the audio tape I have already. Recommended.
