This reminds me of a book I read last nuight, although, sadly, lots of stuff reminds me of the book. It's called Shaman by Sandra Miesel, don't know where you're going to find it outside of a used book store though. It's copyrighted 1989. Anyways, it's a little wierd, dealing with shamanism (naturally), alternate reality, and time travel. However, the main character lives in a world where...people just don't do anything wild with weapons or anything. So a 'noncomp" (which I presume to mean a noncompliant person) is a person who's gone insane, and usually commits homicide or at least suicide. So the government tries to pad society even more. Kind of depressing when you see our society moving that way. On the other hand, I think we can do without dog sized rats on an alternate world she visits frequently.
