Acknowledgements and the Like

Among the many people who helped this book I especially want to thank
Chris Clarke, for one of the images which brought the story alive; and Matt, for various other stimuli
for help and hospitality in some of the locations, Gary and Uschi in Munich - Tony and Marge in Manchester - Jack Sullivan, T. E. D. Klein, Kathy Murray, Kirby McCauley, Jay Gregory, in New York
John and Ann Thompson, and Tony Beck, for details of the University setting - not the personalities, who are my inventions
Peter Valentine Timlett, for expert advice on out-of-the-body experiences (though he should not be held responsible for my imagination, and would, I know, want me to make it clear that amateur experiments with these techniques can be dangerous)
Three of my favourite film critics, whose accounts of teaching film were helpful: Philip Strick, David Thomson, Robin Wood
Carol Smith, Thom Tessier, Tim Shackleton, Kirby again, for suggestions that improved the book
my wife Jenny for many things, not least for advice and criticism while the book was.being written, and for the Tarot readings
Finally, I had better say that the shop which is the setting for the finale of this book does not exist, nor did `Peter Grace' live in the location described.
