IS EVERYTHING CONNECTED?

Can we sense what's happening to loved ones thousands of miles away? Why are we sometimes certain of a caller's identity the instant the phone rings? Do intuitive hunches contain information about future events? Is it possible to perceive without the use of the ordinary senses?

Many people believe that such "psychic phenomena" are rare talents or divine gifts. Others don't believe they exist at all. But the latest scientific research shows that these phenomena are both real and widespread, and are an unavoidable consequence of the interconnected, entangled physical reality we live in.

Albert Einstein called entanglement "spooky action at a distance" -- the way two objects remain connected through time and space, without communicating in any conventional way, long after their initial interaction has taken place. Could a similar entanglement of minds explain our apparent psychic abilities? Dean Radin, senior scientist at the Institute of Noetic Sciences, believes it might.

In this illuminating book, Radin shows how we know that psychic phenomena such as telepathy, clairvoyance, and psychokinesis are real, based on scientific evidence from thousands of controlled lab tests. Radin surveys the origins of this research and explores, among many topics, the collective premonitions of 9/11. He reveals the physical reality behind our uncanny telepathic experiences and intuitive hunches, and he debunks the skeptical myths surrounding them. Entangled Minds sets the stage for a rational, scientific understanding of psychic experience.

An Important Book

This is a great read, the text is accessible, and you are given insights on many quantum physics related subjects. I consider this book to be the equal of "Holographic Universe" by Michael Talbot, another book that is important and instrumental in any quantum and/or mystical journeying.


Excellent

If you are interested in the paranormal then this is the book for you. Radin covers every spectrum of the science. He makes convincing and well informed arguements. He then goes further into how he believe modern science has an explanation for the phenomena. The book is informative, scientifically written, surprisingly easy to read, interesting, and I like his dry sense of humour. I would recommend this book to believers and critics alike.

Is everything connected? Yes it is. Everyone should read this.

This was a wonderful book that was easy to read, entertaining, and thoroughly enlightening. Everything Radin presents is backed up by a myriad of experiments and his own research, with a 50-page endnotes section to boot.

This book explores "psi" phenomena like telepathy, clairvoyance, and ESP, and while at first glance I'm sure you'll be skeptical, or perhaps eager to see how he claims these things are realities... but by the end of the book, I assure you, you'll have a slightly if not completely different outlook on life and the reality around you.

Highly recommended for anyone interested in this subject. Further reading I'd recommend is Michael Talbot's "The Holographic Universe."

Evidence and concepts that bridge the fields of quantum physics and consciousness

This is not just an interesting book, it is an important one. Radin has brought together evidence and concepts that bridge the fields of quantum physics and consciousness in a way that should be comprehensible to experts in both fields.
Entanglement is the interlinking of particles in quantum physics in ways that are as yet unexplained, but which demonstrate in a variety of experiments that the separation of space between particles does not hinder their interactions. Entanglement is also another way of stating the fact that minds interact across space and time, as has been amply confirmed by parapsychologists in highly significant studies of telepathy, clairsentience, precognition and psychokinesis.
Radin's presentation of the evidence on both sides is, for the most part, clear and cogent. His summary of the spectrum of theories in quantum physics that propose to explain entanglement is one of the clearest I have seen. Likewise, his summary of parapsychology research - updated from his earlier major work (Radin, 1997) - is equally well done. I particularly like the following metaphoric description that links both lines of discussion:
At a level of reality deeper than the ordinary senses can grasp, our brains and minds are in intimate communion with the universe. It's as though we lived in a gigantic bowl of clear jello. Every wiggle-every movement, event, and thought-within that medium is felt through the entire bowl. Except that this particular form of jello is a rather peculiar medium, in that it's not localized in the usual way, nor is it squishy like ordinary Jell-O. It extends beyond the bounds of ordinary spacetime, and it's not even a substance in the usual sense of that word.
Because of this "nonlocal Jell-O" in which we are embedded, we can get glimpses of information about other people's minds, distant objects, or the future or past. We get this not through the ordinary senses and not because signals from those other minds and objects travel to our brain. But because at some level our mind/brain is already coexistent with other people's minds, distant objects, and everything else. To navigate through this space, we use attention and intention. From this perspective, psychic experiences are reframed not as mysterious "powers of the mind" but as momentary glimpses of the entangled fabric of reality.
Particles that are quantum entangled do not imply that signals pass between them. Entanglement means that separated systems are correlated. Psi, on the other hand, seems to involve information transfer, like signal passing. At first glance, that seems to eliminate quantum correlations as an explanation of psi. However, the pseudo-telepathy paradigm discussed in the previous chapter shows that joint tasks would require classical signals can take place without any information transfer. This suggests an alternative understanding of psi. Maybe it doesn't involve information transfer at all. Maybe it's purely relational and manifests only as correlations. (p. 263).
This book provides the research evidence and theories to convince anyone open to being convinced that a collective consciousness is alive and well in our world, and that we are active participants in it.
