The Intention Experiment: Using Your Thoughts to Change Your Life and the World By Lynne McTaggart Lynne McTaggart's first book, The Field: The Quest for the Secret Force of the Universe, documented discoveries in science that link us to a quantum field of energy, which ultimately becomes our manifested reality. Now through her new book she is providing the opportunity for people worldwide to take part in the Intention Experiment. She provides much-needed validation for the possibility of creating a new world through our thoughts. This is a great book that you can actually get involved with in a global way.

An Experiment Of Questionable IntentionJune 22, 2008 10 out of 15 found this review helpful
The book spends all but a few chapters as a reference of all the previous studies done to show that intention and thought does affect our physical world. I've read almost every one of the books written on all those experiments, so it was a bit repetitious. So why another experiment? In the author's own words, "an inordinate number of books have been written about the power of the human being to manifest his or her reality, and while they have served up intuitive truths, they offer little in the way of scientific evidence." Spoken like a true egghead.
We so value the intellect over any other form of knowing, even though in the author's compilation of tests, it showed the heart was higher intelligence than the brain! We let the intellect dominate how we experience reality to the extent that we have obliterated our perspective of common sense. A prime example is a Harvard study costing hundreds of thousands of dollars to show that cheese is the best bait to catch mice. How can our intellect not let us see what already is, unless it is measured by what is provable?
And who can we have do these experiments? The pillars of the scientific community. Guys like Popp: these foremost, leaders in their fields who are hesitant to risk their reputations on any study which might fail, once he has made a name for himself? And these people are supposed to be on the cutting edge? Give me a break. How can anyone respect these people?
What the author and most scientists fail to understand is that we live in a temporal world, but these intuitive truths they want to scientifically prove are eternal. If the scientists don't prove them, do they not exist, or did they prove that their methods are inadequate or their paradigm is insufficient?
Come be a part of a fantastic voyageJune 9, 2008 This is the stuff of science fiction, but it turns out that science is proving every day that it's truth. Want to be a part of something big, this is your chance. Fascinating read, even more fascinating experiment.
the Intention ExperimentJune 9, 2008 4 out of 5 found this review helpful
I am drawn to books of this nature yet I find that they are at times lacking. Now I realize that reading books give you only one point of view, you have to experience things yourself or the books are just words. Though I like this book I found that reading Ms. McTaggart's first book was enough. We can read all the books in the world about Intention but unless we experience it first hand it is only a story.
Outstanding scientific review!May 30, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
As a physicist I get frustrated with the inability of those in the 'scientific' realm to effectively educate and inspire. Lynne has done an amazing job of compiling some of the latest and greatest information on the effect of consciousness in our world, and making it accesible and interesting. It is a bit heavy, but the reward is well worth getting through the mind-bending material. This is one of the best books on the subject I have come across. Highly recommended!
