“The world we live in is composed of impressions received through the senses. But there is an infinity of possible worlds, and if the senses can be attuned to receive a different series of impressions, we should infallibly find ourselves living in a different world.”441

To this, a young psychologist, the rash and romantic Harold Shea, responds:

“Do you mean that a complete shift would actually transfer a man’s body into one of these other worlds?”

“Very likely,” agreed Chalmers, “since the body records whatever sensations the mind permits. For complete demonstration it would be necessary to try it, and I don’t know that the risk would be worth it. The other world might have such different laws that it would be impossible to return.”
