Mind Over Matter by Michael Kerrigan
Is it possible to transmit thoughts directly into someone's brain? Can random number generators predict future events? Fantastical, maybe, but these are among the questions evaluated by noetic scientists. Some claim we are on the verge of a paradigm shift; others dismiss the entire field. Decide for yourself with this engrossing, balanced account.
This is a smart, dynamic, approachable exploration into the noetic sciences, offering a rare blend of compelling narrative and responsible research on the connections between mind and matterThe ... presentation is beautiful, innovative, and easy to use. As a noetic scientist, I learned new things and got to see familiar information in new ways. As an anthropologist, I found the cultural references and analysis of the skeptic/proponent debate engaging. And as a student of this complex and fascinating field, I appreciate the scope of the work as well as the depth offered by the index and bibliography.--Marilyn Schlitz, President & CEO, Institute of Noetic Sciences, California
