A Doorway to the Fantastic for Lay-PersonsOctober 20, 2007 4 out of 5 found this review helpful
If you are a scientist you may wish Lynne McTaggart went into more depth with her reporting, but the fact is that she is a reporter, not a scientist, and she wrote this fascinating look at cutting edge science so that a wide audience could follow and appreciate it. She did a very good job and offers clear references so anyone wishing to pursue more in depth information may do so.
Consider this book the doorway that will open a new world of interesting possibilities to you and if you wish to pursue more information, use her references. I highly recommend this book.
Terrible, rambling pseudo-scienceOctober 18, 2007 28 out of 33 found this review helpful
This book deals with some important and interesting subjects, but I really struggled with the writing style - everything is "amazing". Even more concerning was the seeming complete disregard for the scientific method (which is not the same as scientific dogma). Hypotheses are frequently presented as conclusions, and there is no time spent on arguing or presenting alternative theories. Very disappointing.
The Field by Lynn MctaggertOctober 17, 2007 2 out of 4 found this review helpful
A very well written summary of developments in "psychic" research and Quantum Physics, and the ways in which discoveries in quantum effects are showing that human thoughts affect and interact with the "world" of energy/matter of which they are an integral part. The reviews that say[[ASIN:0060931175 The Field: The Quest for the Secret Force of the Universe] is nonsense are clearly based on the premiss that conventional non-quantum science has the only acceptable answers, and that all the carefully conducted studies in "psychic" research that show positive results are necessarily somehow fatally flawed. As such they are expressions of faith in materialist dogma. If this book were not important it would not have provoked the reponses that it has and it could safely be ignored. Highly recommended.
The Zero Point FieldOctober 12, 2007 4 out of 5 found this review helpful
"The Intention Experiment" by Lynn McTaggart is a fascinating book and highly inspirational since it highlights the reconciliation between science and religion, Newtonian Science and Quantum Physics etc. The central concept in this book is the Zero Point Field, the microscopic vibrational space between objects. This field connects everything that exists and is of paramount importance in manifesting when consciously living an intentional life.
Some powerful New Age books that I've also discoverred are;
Limitless Mind: A Guide to Remote Viewing and Transformation of Consciousness
Entangled Minds: Extrasensory Experiences in a Quantum Reality
Nexus: A Neo Novel

I am on my second reading. The information is important enough for me to be able to re-late it to others, especially in my progressive Christian church group. Although written in 2001...science is still kicking against some of this wisdom of it's own. Bucky Fuller said we're always 50 years behind the leading edge.
