Being Here Now: Insights of an Ex-Schizophrenic does not promise anything magical. It only offers new knowledge and skills to help create, discover or unleash a personal sense of sanity, success, and wellness. Towards this end, it covers existence, interaction, and grit from fresh perspectives. It attempts to demystify much of our social reality and furnishes a new basis for

all individuals, the ordinary and the challenged, to contribute and feel contented. Insights to help acquire such a sense emerged during the author's recovery from schizophrenia. This offering is a vastly improved second edition that makes for easier reading and assimilation.
