My interest in what I now call 'life-force', 'orgone' or 'qi' probably started when I was still a child. It was at this time that Peter Reich's, 'A Book of Dreams,' caught my eye and started my interest in orgonomy (Peter was Wilhelm's son).  Orgonomy is the science of life-force named after orgone, Reich's term for this energy. At a deeper level orgone is a force rather than simply an energy but see my essays for more on that subtle point.

I did an acupuncture training, during which I found the Chinese theory of Qi fascinating. At the end of the course we were offered the chance to do a Master's research degree. I decided to to a research degree looking at the common foundation of Reich and Chinese medicine. Little did I know then what I had taken on. It was gruelling both in terms of work and from the opposition I encountered. From this came a practical and theoretical study which became my first published book.
