I loved the book and RAW (reported missing from this part of time; I sadly suspect he's really gone this time).
There was only one of his books that I found impenetrable/annoying/unpleasing and I have read most of them (The one where every bunch of words explodes and MIRVs repeatedly in one's mind, like a definition in a Turkish-English dictionary or a box full of capsules of scout ants; I don't recall its name and it's behind two stacks of books acquired since: not handy.). Maybe he used cut-ups.
Amazon says I bought Quantum Psychology in 1975, so it's been a while since I read it but only yesterday I caught myself saying "infophobic" under my breath about a baby on the bus.
RAW likens the developing mind to electronic orbitals (energy levels or quantum states of electrons), laid down in order as you move down the periodic table, but then adds a dialectical dimension, an axis, (maybe a spin quantum #) for at least the first three. Infophobia-Infophilia is like the 1S electronic orbital, the first to be filled. I am so glad that I turned out infophilic.
You might think of the model as being an inner set of the layers of the onion that EST (Erhard Seminars Training) workshops sought to strip down. However, wave-mechanical views of electrons are dynamic and probabilistic rather than the rigid shells of earlier electronic theory and the layers of real onions.
He acknowledges a debt to Timothy Leary but his atomic/quantum way of looking at how minds and personalities are put together, made of definite components, is a vast improvement upon those proposed by other psychologists/psychiatrists who try to boil us down to a will to power, sex drive, etc.. He also points out that we don't need to be stuck with our psychological configuration but can change it, maybe with a little help from our friends.
