Goswami's basic premise is that quantum physics is not only the future of science, but is also the key to understanding consciousness, life, death, God, psychology, and the meaning of life. Quantum physics is an antidote to the moral sterility and mechanistic approach of scientific materialism and is the best and clearest approach to understanding our universe. In short, quantum physics is indeed the theory of everything.Here in 17 chapters, Dr. Goswami and his friends and colleagues discuss, among other things, how quantum physics affects our understanding of: ZenThoughts, feelings, and intuitionsDreamsKarma, death, and reincarnationGod's will, evolution, and purposeThe meaning of dreamsThe spiritualization of economics and business, politics and education, and society itselfThis fascinating new book will appeal to a wide array of readers, ranging from those interested in the new physics to those captivated by the spiritual implications of the latest scientific breakthroughs.

In December 1943, 20-year-old Army private George Ritchie died of pneumonia. Nine minutes later, he came back profoundly changed. What happened to him while his dead body lay under a sheet would change his life and that of his family, friends and patients. George Ritchie briefly retells the story of that strange experience and then tells what happened later, including the real miracles that he saw in his years of practice as a doctor and psychiatrist. Included here are powerful stories of physical and emotional healing that were shaped by those nine minutes on "the other side." What's more, using plain, everyday examples from life, he offers penetrating insights into what is wrong with life today and how it can be set right.

The E.T. Chronicles grapples with the big questions such as Who are we? Where do we come from? Why are we here? through a careful reading of world mythology. The authors organize these ancient stories into a chronology that starts with in the beginning and ends with the advent of civilization in an effort to discover the true story of human origins. The book brings together myths from many cultures including the Sumerians, the Greeks, the Maya and the Aborigines of Australia. Current scientific discoveries are then placed side-by-side with these early worldviews. Among the topics covered are creation myths, gods and goddesses, heaven, the gods and their toys (space ships or chariots?), and the quest for immortality. Could it be that those ancient stories of the gods were more than the product of someone's fanciful imagination? Is it possible that the writers, chroniclers, and scribes of our distant past actually record an accurate view of our origin?

Induced After Death Communication (IADC) is a therapy for grief and trauma that has helped thousands of people come to terms with their grief by allowing them the experience of private communication with their departed loved ones. This is the definitive book on the subject. Botkin, a clinical psychologist, created the therapy while counselling Vietnam veterans in his work at a Chicago area VA hospital. Botkin recounts his initial - accidental - discovery of IADC during therapy sessions with Sam, a Vietnam vet haunted by the memory of a Vietnamese girl he couldn''t save. During the session, quite unexpectedly, Sam saw a vision of the girl''s spirit, who told him everything was okay; she was at peace now. This single moment surpassed months - years - of therapy, and allowed Sam to reconnect with his family. Since that 1995 discovery, Botkin has used IADC to successfully treat countless patients - the book includes dozens of case histories - and has taught the procedure to therapists around the country.

According to P.M.H. Atwater, one of the foremost investigators into near-death experiences, future memory allows people to "live" life in advance and remember the experience in detail when something triggers that memory.Atwater explains the unifying, and permanent, effect of that experience is a "brain shift" which she believes "may be at the very core of existence itself." In FUTURE MEMORY, Atwater shows that structural and chemical changes are occurring in our brains, changes indicative of higher evolutionary development.This mind-blowing exploration of a mind blowing topic traces her findings about this phenomenon and provides an important step in understanding the relationship between human perception and reality.FUTURE MEMORY:┬╖Provides a series of steps to assist in developing future memory┬╖Explores new models of time, existence and consciousness┬╖Presents an in-depth study of the brain shift and how it can be experienced┬╖Offers an extensive appendix, resource manual and notes

The true and strange story of Ted Owens, whose claims of powerful psychokinetic abilities given to him by "Space Intelligences" were too bizarre and extreme for many to believe. Author Jeffrey Mishlove, Ph.D., a respected parapsychologist, analyzes correspondence, interviews, newspaper reports, and testimonies of observers to probe the troubled nature and remarkable life of "the world's greatest psychic," as Owens claimed to be.

"Goswami's hypothesis is that quantum physics holds the key to all the unsolved mysteries of biology--the nature and origin of life, fossil gaps of evolution, why evolution proceeds from simple to complex, and why biological beings have feeling and consciousness. In God is Not Dead, Goswami moves beyond theory and shows how a God-based science puts ethics and values where it belongs: at the center of our lives and societies. He provides a scientific model that steers between scientific materialism and religious fundamentalism, a model that has implications for how we live both individually and collectively"--Publisher marketing.

Russll Targ''s story is an idiosyncratic journey through the highways and byways of intellectual, scientific and cultural life in 20th century. His father (the long-time editor-in-chief at Putnam) acquired The Godfather on the basis of an outline scribbled on the back of a napkin. His mother was the first press agent of the fan dancer Sally Rand. His step-mother is the legendary literary agent Rosalind Targ. He was married for thirty years to the sister of the infamous chess master Bobby Fischer. He briefly dated Henny Youngman''s cousin. He attended college with Alan Alda''s wife, Arlene. He was part of Ayn Rand''s study group in the 1950s - along with economist Alan Greenspan. He was a pioneer in laser research. He spent many years developing air-borne laser wind sensors for Lockheed and NASA. He co-founded the Stanford Research Institute remote viewing programme - which was funded by the CIA - and was instrumental in tracking Soviet and Chinese weapon installations during the Cold War. And, he is a legally blind motorcyclist - who happens to be a Buddhist. This is a fascinating memoir by a first-class intellect; the story of a physicist who has pushed the boundaries of science to explore the realms of parapsychology, spirituality and the unexplained.
