Mahmoud Shelton

Mahmoud Shelton's qualifications to explore the Mysteries of Dune are more than academic. He is the son of the late Dr. Jack Shelton, a leading authority on the medical use of LSD when (and where) Frank Herbert was writing Dune. Raised in a West Coast environment in which Zen Buddhism was paramount, the author has been a follower of Sufism for more than 30 years.
