About this ebook

This myth-shattering book explains the evidence for the veracity of psychic phenomena, uniting the teachings of mystics, the theories of quantum physics, and the latest in high-tech experiments. With painstaking research and deft, engaging prose, Radin dispels the misinformation and superstition that have clouded the understanding of scientists and laypeople alike concerning a host of fascinating oddities. Psychokinesis, remote viewing, prayer, jinxes, and more--all are real, all have been scientifically proven, and the proof is in this book.

Radin draws from his own work at Princeton, Stanford Research Institute, and Fortune 500 companies, as well as his research for the U.S. government, to demonstrate the surprising extent to which the truth of psi has already been tacitly acknowledged and exploited. The Conscious Universe also sifts the data for tantalizing hints of how mind and matter are linked. Finally, Radin takes a bold look ahead, to the inevitable social, economic, academic, and spiritual consequences of the mass realization that mind and matter can influence each other without having physical contact.

Ratings and reviews

Doctor Radin does an excellent job presenting scientific facts in a clear cut way. His scientific approach alongside with his obvious passion on the subject , makes crystal clear that psi is just another aspect of reality. Without diving into any hocus pocus and by using reason without any assumptions, he simply interprets the data and proves scientifically that these phenomena really exist. The statistical terms might seem a bit harsh in the beginning of the book but they are a requirement for the reader to understand the importance of these experiments alongside with their scientific validity. If you are a true skeptic (skeptic comes from the Greek word Σκέψη which means to critically think without any prejudice) then I truly believe that this book will be a wild ride for you.

I like the subject material but it was written as if to an audience that was assumed to be well versed in scientific jargon, which I am not.
