Unintended Results: New Chapters in an Ongoing Story

Unintended Results: New Chapters in an Ongoing Story contains about 37 pieces of writing and a running commentary that bring the author’s story up to date from the printing and distribution of his The Age of Illusion: Some Writings and a Memoir (1999). It presents views on some of the events of these years, including September 11, 2001, and the war in Iraq. The book has many details that have not appeared on the author’s Web page, including a fragment, “In the New Payne Whitney Clinic, July 13, 2003”; a short story, “Susan Will Adopt”; and two “poems.”
