This book is a map and an escape plan. It is the story of my endeavour to get out of the rut of A predetermined, coffective destiny. When existence grips you in a vice so you cannot breathe, as it has done with me, when you are hopelessly disappointed by your life and do not see any way out, this Book will find you, will appear in your hands and you will know that you are ready for your Individual Revolution, for the greatest adventure a man can possibly imagine: The regaining of his integrity, of his paradise lost.
