Title: The jamais vu papers
Subtitle: or misadventures in the worlds of science, myth, and magic
First published: 1991
Description: Did you ever get the feeling you’ve NEVER been here before? Once upon a time in Los Angeles, an addled psychiatrist named Hector Glasco was vainly trying to treat a jaded celebrity named Hilary, who suffered from a chronic and perhaps potentially fatal case of déjà vu—that condition, of course, in which one has the weirdest feeling that one has been here before. First published by Harmony Books/Crown in 1991, *[The Jamais Vu Papers][1]* built a solid following over the years. Eventually, the shortage of recirculating copies drove prices so high that it was clearly time for a new edition. So here again is *The Jamais Vu Papers*—the entire original book plus a bonus tale and some words about the origins of the whole idea.
