ReviewsThe cosmic energy field explained Review date: 2010-06-16 Rating: 10 out of 10 The Field: The quest for the secret force of the universe by Lynne McTaggart, Element Books (HarperCollins), London, 2001, 384 ff The cosmic energy field explained By Howard Jones This book is written by a journalist who reports the results of experiments in psychic and quantum phenomena carried out by very many scientists, primarily in America and Europe. The accounts are those given by the scientists themselves - a point that some of the critical reviewers seem to have overlooked when they dismiss this book as `unscientific nonsense' or science fiction. Lynne McTaggart is simply reporting in as accessible a way as possible what she has been told or what has been published by physicists, psychologists and physicians. This book is about the zero point field (zpf) - the residual (potential) energy field that remains in all matter at the absolute zero of temperature. The subatomic particles of matter interact with the zpf in every moment of their existence. Concepts from quantum physics are not easy to comprehend, especially if the reader doesn't have some background in science. Furthermore, these ideas present a different world view from that of Descartes and Newton, and there are many scientists (and some reviewers obviously!) who are stuck in this classical reductionist, materialist world-view and who refuse to accept that there is evidence of phenomena that simply cannot be explained with these principles. I am a scientist who has used quantum concepts in my research, and I do not `belong' to any religion: so I have no preconceived beliefs to distort my assessment of the facts. The personal stories that McTaggart tells here are not irrelevant, as one reviewer suggested - they put a human face to scientists who are thought by many to be without emotions because their work must necessarily be objective. Part 1 of the book, The Resonating Universe, explains the basic physics and describes how it extends classical ideas. For example, McTaggart describes how Haisch, Rueda and Putoff used the zpf to explain mathematically the inertia of matter, a concept derived from Newton's first law of motion. The `resonance' of the section title includes description of the coherence of photons (`light' or electromagnetic radiation) emitted from living tissue under certain conditions - evidence validated by German biophysicist Fritz-Albert Popp and others but dismissed by one biologist reviewer. Physicist Herbert Fröhlich suggested similar resonance between proteins in the metabolism of cell tissues: this occurs only at what are now called Fröhlich frequencies. In Part 2, The Extended Mind describes the mind-body interactions that have become widely recognized now in medicine as crucial to our state of health. There are many books giving clinical examples, like those of Benson and Dossey. This interactive consciousness is postulated as occurring, at least partly, through the zpf. This idea is elaborated further in Part 3, Tapping Into The Field, but extended into how we can through mind enter into Jung's collective unconscious (another name for the zpf?) and thereby affect other minds at other times and places besides the present - Laszlo's Akashic Field. That this provides an explanation of psychic events is a hypothesis, as is the suggestion that the zpf is the cosmic spiritual energy that has been envisaged by mystical sages since earliest times. But the existence of the zpf itself is an established fact of quantum physics. Just how many natural phenomena result from its influence remains to be seen. This is one of the best books I have read on this challenging subject. Dr Howard A. Jones is the author of The Thoughtful Guide to God (2006) and The Tao of Holism (2008), both published by O Books of Winchester, UK. The Tao of Physics (Flamingo) Timeless Healing: The Power and Biology of Belief Science and the Akashic Field: An Integral Theory of Everything Gaia: A New Look at Life on Earth A clarion call to re-examine the fundamentals of science Review date: 2010-03-20 Rating: 8 out of 10 In a compelling read somewhat reminiscent of The Dancing Wu Li Masters: Overview of the New Physics, Lynne McTaggart investigates the concept of 'the Zero-Point Field' and re-evaluates many of the assumptions of early XXI century science about issues such as consciousness, perception, cell communication and the unifying electro-magnetic field - the 'ether' of yesteryear. Firmly focused on scientific evidence and on the rise of a new paradigm, this thrilling volume will stimulate the debate about the true nature of the Universe and the coming-of-age of the 'science vs. spirituality' debate. Buy it! Review date: 2010-01-30 Rating: 10 out of 10 If you're thinking about buying this, then you should. Its a complex subject, but easy to read, and very thought provoking. Having said that many of the concepts are covered in The Intention Experiment.The Intention Experiment: Use Your Thoughts to Change the World, which is the follow-up to this; it's also more up-to-date. Even so this really is worth a read Disappointing Review date: 2009-11-16 Rating: 4 out of 10 Hi, I was very disappointed with this book.I found it a very boring read,which i certainly did not expect.Where i do support the idea of there being an energy field connecting all living things in the universe i felt this book did not go deep enough into that aspect.I've since sold this book on to someone else who hopefully will enjoy it more than i did!!
