straight-forward science April 17, 2008 this book explains quantum physics in a way that is easy for just about anyone to understand. dr. wolf's style is great... it's engaging and interesting... and, dare i say it, fun! there are even pictures to make the concepts easier to understand :)
if you're interested in the science-spirituality* link, this is a great book to read.
*not religion or god... but simple spirituality.

Okay, so my mind controls and is in charge everything that I experience, including interactions with other people. So what do their minds control? Taken to its logical conclusion, everyone else I am with is controlling my life as well. So who's in control? Feel the love, but skip this metaphysicla diarrhea.
Essential for all the Bleepers Out there. October 29, 2006 9 out of 15 found this review helpful
Contains many truths. You will appreciate this book very much if you: 1) Have seen "What the Bleep We know" movie 2) Have been taking advanced yoga classes or other practicing any other discipline 3) Have read any of Robert Anton Wilson's books 4) Have favourited "Matrix" as one your all time best movies 5) Have seen "The Secret" movie 6) Have been a Cabbalist or a Free Mason 7) Have been a Ideological Anarchist 8) Have been a Theologian 9) Have been a Physicist
Mind into Matter is a book with many exotical ideas and interpetations (some sceptics may say convenient extrapolations) but it is an interesting backgorund for the things that may follow in the next years.
One more book in your personal library of enlightment.
Repetitive and redundant January 12, 2006 42 out of 59 found this review helpful
Of the thousands of books I've read in my life, and the hundreds I've actually purchased from Amazon.com, this is the first time I've felt strongly enough about a book to write any sort of review.
I kept waiting for the author to get to the point. He rambled and meandered and didn't tell me anything new whatsoever. He used the words "alchemy" and "alchemists" in almost every single paragraph of the book.
Skip this book - you'll get MUCH more out of the "Cosmic Trigger" series, "Quantum Psychology", or "Prometheus Rising" by R.A. Wilson.
In the Beginning Was the Word November 2, 2005 22 out of 22 found this review helpful
Dr. Fred Alan Wolf has once again pricked our consciousness in order to awaken us to realities already within our grasp. In Mind Into Matter he explains in lay terms how thought transmutates into the material, and how we can therefore truly create not only our world, but the world we leave to our children. In essence, a "you-niverse" Recent centuries of scientific development have attempted to understand and describe all creation strictly as objective science, to the detriment and ignorance of the subjective. It's time the pendulum swung back a bit. By melding the ideas of the old alchemists with those of the new scientists, Wolf uses the language of quantum physics to describe what the alchemists and Qabalists have long called the Magnum Opus - the Absolute Realization.
I was fortunate enough to meet Dr Wolf to discuss his work in the company of an eclectic group that included local physicists, physician and mind-body guru Deepak Chopra, as well as musician Dave Stewart. All of this diverse and highly creative assemblage were mesmerized. As we dissolved into reading Rumi, quoting Newton, and evaluating neurophysiologic experiments, it became increasingly clear how Wolf's concepts collate all of that wisdom. Wolf's work should be studied by all who wish to develop consciousness to a higher level not only to contribute to their own well being, but that of the planet.
Highly recommended for anyone, regardless of scientific background.
