Publication: San Francisco, HarperSanFrancisco, 1990

Formatting: 8vo, original publisher's pictorial wraps.

Condition Report: Very Good. The publisher's pictorial wraps remain well-preserved, though exhibiting some mild shelf-wear, primarily light rubbing to the spine extremities and a faint crease to the lower front corner. The binding is structurally sound and tight, with an uncreased spine suggesting careful or limited previous readership. The text block is square and clean, with only light, even age-toning to the page edges, completely free from internal markings or significant blemishes.

Catalogue Note: This is the revised and updated third edition of this foundational text on transpersonal psychology. The copyright page features a full number line down to '1', confirming it as a true first printing of this specific release.

While later printings of this paperback are readily available on the open market, securing a true first printing of this updated text in tight, uncreased condition remains a desirable acquisition for students and collectors of the field.

Widely considered a classic anthology in the study of the human mind, Altered States of Consciousness brings together groundbreaking research on the varied ways we experience reality. Edited by pioneering psychologist Charles T. Tart, this comprehensive volume features contributions from luminaries such as William James, Milton H. Erickson, and Stanley Krippner, exploring meditation, hypnosis, psychedelic drugs, and dream states. It remains an essential, thought-provoking resource for anyone delving into the illimitable resources of human consciousness.

Book Condition Guide

We stock thousands of books in a wide range of conditions. To make things clear and to help you know exactly what to expect, Please refer to these condition categories to understand the condition of the book you will receive.
Condition Description
New A brand-new, unread and professionally handled book. Carefully preserved from publication to purchase, these books are offered in the best attainable condition. This grade applies to recently published titles that have not entered long-term storage.
As New The book is in pristine, original condition as if just published. No signs of use or handling. The dust jacket (if present) is equally flawless. This grade applies to any book that has remained untouched in storage for years.
Fine The book is close to As New. It remains bright and attractive, but could show minor imperfections to the boards and/or dust jacket (if present). Its pages are typically clean and unmarked.
Near Fine The book has a number of small flaws, i.e. slight rubbing to the edges, or tiny chips or creases to the dust jacket (if present). Its pages may have faint marks, or creases that are barely perceptible — nothing that detracts from their overall condition.
Very Good The book maintains its structural integrity, and has no major flaws such as tears to its binding or pages. It may, however, show signs of careful use, handling, or storage — small marks and creases, light foxing. Its dust jacket (if present) remains fully intact, but small tears may be present.
Good A book that remains intact and readable with complete text pages, but shows moderate signs of wear and use to both the book and dust jacket (if present). It may have noticeable creases, nicks, or stains, and the spine likely shows fading, bumping, and rubbing. There could be writing, underlining, and other marks on some pages, though the majority will be clean and tidy.
Fair A book with significant wear or damage. The text pages will be complete, but there may be heavy underlining, highlighting and staining throughout, and the book’s endpapers, half-title, and copyright pages could be damaged or missing. The binding could be loose, and the dust jacket (if present) may have notable scuffs or tears. These copies are usually of interest for content, signature(s) or scarcity.
Poor A heavily worn book whose value lies in its complete and legible text. A poor book will have substantial defects — loose joints or hinges, detached covers, loose and/or missing pages, and could be heavily soiled. A poor book is also known as a reading copy, and although compromised, can hold historical or bibliographic significance.
