[11] These paradigms offer new conceptual worldviews and data to answer the qualia problem related to Identity Theory beyond Smart or Armstrong. The mind is seen as more than just brain or physical processes, but Identity Theory insights are used as a foundation for further exploration. See Lilly, J. Programming and Meta-programming in the Human Bio-computer (3rd ed), Abacus Books, 1974, p. viii. Lilly's research into electrical stimulation of the brain, altered states of consciousness (LSD and Ketamine), sensory deprivation tanks, anomalous psychological states, and the possibilities of dolphin-human communication are detailed in Lilly, J. The Scientist: A Metaphysical Biography (3rd ed.), Ronin Publishing Inc, 1988. Background research on the brain's ability to reprogram belief systems is explored in Lilly, J. Simulations of God: The Science of Belief, Abacus Books, 1976. Useful background life conditions data is contained in Barglow, R. Crisis of the Self in the Age of Information: Computers, Dolphins & Dreams, Routledge, 1994. The misuse of Lilly's research data by military and intelligence sources is best detailed in Lee, M. and Shlain, B. Acid Dreams: The CIA, LSD and the Sixties Rebellion, Grove Press, 1985. Also see the films The Day of the Dolphin (1973) and Altered States (1980), which are based on Lilly's research experiences. Also see the J.C. Lilly Web Homepage. From Lilly, J. The Centre of the Cyclone: An Autobiography of Inner Space, Julian Press, 1972, p.5 "In the province of the mind, what is believed to be true is true or becomes true, within limits to be found experientially and experimentally. These limits are further beliefs to be transcended. In the province of the mind, there are no limits."
