Books are the single largest classification in the catalogue; they include works by a predictable pantheon of authors-Buckminster Fuller, Carl Jung, John Cage, Arthur Koestler-and some not so predictable. Particularly recommended are Cosmic View, a 1957 children's book by Dutch Schoolmaster Kees Boeke ("You advance in and out through the universe," says the blurb, "changing scale by a factor of ten") and Stalking the Wild Asparagus, Euell Gibbons' foraging guide to edible wild plants.

...whom a mountain might fly through the air or the sun stand still. Later it was assumed that some kind of emanations issued from heavenly bodies to affect the characters and destinies of men. When scientists found no emanations powerful enough, sophisticated astrologers abandoned causality altogether and eagerly embraced Jung's theory of "synchronicity"?that everything in the universe at any given moment participates through that moment with everything else that shares the same unit of time...
