 New age "metaphysics" masquerading as science August 15, 2002
101 out of 145 found this review helpful
Nothing new here; another in the long list of "investigators" selectively presenting the suspect experimental results of a fringe minority of "researchers". A broad and thorough review of the current scientific literature shows McTaggart's conclusions to be greatly exaggerated at the least. As an advocate of rigorous and methodologically sound paranormal research, I find such sloppy "X-files journalism" a disservice to the valid invesigation of same. Rather, I reccomend Radin's The Concious Universe as a worthwhile alternative for the serious reader.
 scientific proof finally made available August 9, 2002

This is one of the better books that brings science and the scientific method towards the area which has has been initially probed by the metaphysics community. The metaphysics community has been interested in the realm of the 'supernatural' or 'paranormal', for lack of a better word. Unfortunately, they did not have the right tools to explore what they were after from a scientific point of view. Nevertheless, this has not prevented the scientific community from 'stumbling' into this realm, and applying the scientific method of interrogation. That's what this book is all about. It presents a good chunk of the research done by the scientific community that crosses into this new territory, and convincing evidence that was derived from this research, showing the existence of The Field, through which all are connected. What is particularly well done in this book is to bring all the evidence found of The Field from the different disciplines (i.e. physics, biology), and merged them to show that in fact it is the same Field prevalent throughout. Also outlined very well in this book is to what lengths some scientists, who refused to believe the data, went to not only prevent these finding from being published, but also to make the researchers' lives miserable. One is only left wondering what these stubborn scientists are trying to protect.An excellent book that compliments this is The Holographic Universe, that also presents an impressive archive of scientifically documented data in regards to the 'paranormal'. For those of you that blankly stated all of this stuff is silly as there was no scientific proof, here it is, finally made available to the masses. It is now up to each and everyone of us to integrate this new knowledge, and to fully take advantage of it.
Well done, also read SB: 1 or God by Maddox August 3, 2002

This is an imaginative look at the makings of life. If you accept anything here or not, it is of no comparison of how the ideas put forth may stir your thinking. And that is just exactly what this book is, a thinking authors perceptions of this huge thing called life which involves the universe of creation or scientific evolution. The one overwhelming emphasis in the book is to continually mature and evolve or advance to some form of spirituality but in a scientific realm. I liked it, but the subject matter put forth is much better revealed in a book I liked more, SB: 1 or God by Karl Maddox
