About this ebook

“A big, bold, brilliantly crafted page-turner with HUGE ideas that challenge every last view about how the world works. This is both a primer to understand the law of attraction and the essential book of our age.”  — Jack Canfield, author of The Success Principles(TM) and featured teacher on The Secret(TM)

“One of the most powerful and enlightening books I have ever read. A magnificent job of presenting the hard evidence for what spiritual masters have been telling us for centuries.”  — Wayne W. Dyer

During the past few years science and medicine have been converging with common sense, confirming a widespread belief that everything—especially the mind and the body—is far more connected than traditional physics ever allowed. The Field establishes a new biological paradigm: it proves that our body extends electromagnetically beyond ourselves and our physical body. It is within this field that we can find a remarkable new way of looking at health, sickness, memory, will, creativity, intuition, the soul, consciousness, and spirituality.

The Field helps to bridge the gap that has opened up between mind and matter, between us and the cosmos. Original, well researched, and well documented by distinguished sources, this is the mind/body book for a new millennium.

Ratings and reviews

I enjoyed the book all the way until "The Healing Field" chapter. There the author is describing an experiment with the animals suffering from the intentionally inflicted for the sake of this experiment wounds, and that's when the "healers" come in trying to prove that with their healing energy the wounds would be healing faster. Ms. McTaggart, don't you think that this goes against all the ideas you were trying to prove in your book? What kind of "healers" would agree to participate in this kind of cruelty? What kind of energy are they able to send knowing where the pain is coming from in the first palce? Well, I hope you understand my rating. Great book, but... Sincerelly, Natalia

Books such as this continue to enhance my curiosity about the interconnectiveness within the world we live in and beyond. The principle of nonlocality, the zero point field and the institute of Noetic Science will be areas I will continue to explore and discuss with others as I continue my own dance through life.

Thorough, interesting, very well written and relatively easy to read given the subject matter.
