What readers are saying about Mind Surfing:
"A wonderful adventure that stimulates the mind and soul...I could not put Mind Surfing down as one chapter leaped into the next in an intriguing maze that culminated in a look into my soul. Mind Surfing changed me!" - Robin Brown, B.Sc. (Chemical Engineer)
"Mind Surfing is a great mystery because it epitomizes the human mystery. I love the created world with all of its dual meanings, places and characters; they all feel so vibrant to the reader. I can hardly wait for the next instalment! I read this text over and over again and was enriched by each reading." - Lisa Gross, BSN (Professional Nurse)
"Mind Surfing takes the reader on a journey through different levels of consciousness. The adrenaline rush I experienced throughout my reading of Mind Surfing kept me riveted to the book until the end. This book is the first of a long series of definite successes for Mr. Waugh." - Étienne Lizotte, DESS, M.Ps. (Psychologist)
"Surfing is right! Just finished reading Gil's first book. The mind that is being surfed is both Karen's and your own. Although Karen (Gil) describes the worlds she is travelling through, you are left up to your own interpretation as to what they look like, because it's all in your head (mind). An insightful bit about seeing yourself as two different people as well I think.. if I understood correctly. The story takes you from normalcy to fantasy and back again. A good read!" - Alexander Lang (Senior Security Management Consultant)

Mike and actor Christopher Reeve officially launched RWC in the spring of 2001, and in October of 2001, Mike succeeded in becoming the first quadriplegic to circumnavigate the globe.
