Review

‘I think this is an important book and should be widely read. It stretches the imagination, making a good case that we are on the verge of another revolution in our understanding of the universe – perhaps even greater than the one that heralded the Atomic Age.’ Arthur C. Clarke

‘We must freely explore the unknown. Read, learn, accept and change your view of life … fascinating.’
Bernie Siegel, M.D.

‘The Field is a preview of third-millennium science and how it will touch the lives of every person on earth…McTaggart’s book should come with a warning: MAY FOREVER CHANGE YOUR WORLD VIEW.’ Larry Dossey, M.D.

"A fascinating read for anyone who believes there is more to this world than meets the eye. Unputdownable." JACQUES BENVENISTE

‘One of the most powerful and enlightening books I have ever read. I encourage everyone to spend the time examining how we are all connected by thought, by emotions, and yes, even by the atoms and molecules that make up our bodies. This kind of awareness is needed today more than ever before.’ DR WAYNE DYER

The Field is one of the most thought-provoking reads of 2001…This is not the first book on the universal energy called ‘The Zero Point Field’ , but it is probably the most readable, for a non scientist.’ THE ECOLOGIST

‘The Force is with us, even if mainstream science is taking its time to get up to speed in acknowledging it. Fortunately, as Lynne McTaggart highlights in The Field, frontier scientists have been performing experiments that prove the reality of a realm that hitherto had been the domain of Eastern mystics…The vast scope of this book lifts the veil on a state of being that is our birthright!’ Nexus magazine

Lynne McTaggart has done us a great favor by her extensive reporting on this wondrous topic. Her work is strongly recommended.
Hal Fox, Editor, Journal of New Energy

From the Publisher
A book which, like Capra’s Tao of Physics, explores the latest offerings from the scientific community who have found an explanation for the supernatural. It promises to be one of the most successful popular science books of the year. Will appeal to readers of Frijof Capra, Arthur C. Clarke, Graham Hancock and those interested in the paranormal, energy medicine, and popular science

From the Back Cover

'An irresistible detective story for anyone who believes there is more to this world than meets the eye.'
Jacques Benveniste

'A fascinating presentation about the true nature of life.'
Bernie Siegel, M.D,

'One of the most thought-provoking reads of the year.'
'The Ecologist'

During the past few decades, science has begun to prove what ancient myth and religion has always espoused: that there may be such a thing as a life force. Frontier scientists all over the globe have produced extraordinary evidence to show that an energy field – the Zero Point Field – connects everything in the universe, and we ourselves are part of this vast dynamic cobweb of energy exchange.

Lynne McTaggart's book is a highly readable scientific detective story which reveals how the field is responsible for many of the most profound human mysteries, from alternative medicine and spiritual healing to extra-sensory perception and the collective unconscious.

'McTaggart's book should come with a warning: may forever change your world view.'
Larry Dossey, M.D.

Excellent Research
By Seeker
This is a very well researched book showing that science is now proving what enlightened masters have been saying for thousands of years, that we are part of, and one with, a single whole unified field of intelligent energy and power. The furthur science goes into this subtle "field" of energy, the greater the power we find - that's what the experiments are showing. Altogether this is a very readable book, and I would recommend it along with THE ONE which explains in deatil how to consciously "connect" or become aware of this "field".

Quantum Physics at your Service?
By Mr. M. J. Reynolds
As a quantum physicist I was quite impressed with this book. It stretched me. I would recommend that Lynne keep up her studies of quantum interpretation because no real distinction is drawn between the differing ideas. However most of the book is based on the Copenhagen Interpretation of Neils Bohr and colleagues. There is a fleeting reference to the Transactional Interpretation which has considerably less authority in scientific circles. As for the notion of a Zero Point Field all I can say is that it exists but I believe there is no evidence as to what exactly it consists of. Science is making progress but the dictum of Richard Feynman still probably holds - 'I think it's safe to say that nobody understands quantum physics'.

I'm beginning to sound quite critical and you are probably wondering why I have given this four stars. It is because the author has written about the fact that there is more to life than meets the eye. Whether intention really has such power I'm not sure but something certainly does have the power to affect REGs and other things; and as Christians say that we are made in the image of God so perhaps in a small way each of us does possess God-like qualities.

So the real conclusion of 'The Field' should be 'over to you scientists to write into your equations what we have identified'. I have absolutely no idea how long it will take, but I for one, inspired by Lynne McTaggart and others, will do my best.

This is an important book
By Scanney
Perhaps the most important feature of this book is Lynne MacTaggart's balanced even handed writing, not trying to persuade or cajole you. While she is clearly in favour of what they have found, rather than the rebuttals that many of them faced, she describes what different scientists have demonstrated over the last 50 years about the depths of quantum physics, mind, matter, time and space. Their findings confirm what many of us have experienced in many small different experiences throughout our lives, and in one way or another. Experiences that so clearly derive from the truth that consciousness is a unified field, intersecting different levels and experiences of matter, mind, time and space.

Aside from the excellence of her bringing these findings together in readable language... Lynne also keeps her balance as your mind as a reader gets blown away by the fact of homeopathy over the internet, distance healing, that going back to heal yourself or someone before an illness starts and the now theoretically explained and possible wonders of anti-inertia travel, everyday levitation etc.

She also keeps her balance as the experiments she describe make it clear that perception creates reality. Change your perception and you change the reality (not just the way you think about it).She is delicate not to rub in the awesome truth that therefore we each have total responsibility over the reality that we create through our conscious and unconscious use of thought every moment of our lives. Something I need to remain aware of more of the time.

In reading this now, most of what I have seen and witnessed in the last 40 or more years has been squarely pushed back in my face. Among other things, unprompted by me, my six year old son has described auras since he was four and has completely accurate bouts of ESP. So my question is, surely we cannot educate our children as if we do not know all of what is described in this book, when they so clearly experience it first hand, day in day out. We cannot go on talking about chopped up reality as if we do not understand and have not experienced deeper out of time space interconnectivity. Think of the implications for how we describe and teach about all the physical, biological and human created systems? (One of my distant educational backgrounds being traditional Oxford neoruphysiology). This is what is currently blowing my mind, especially when I see how these things are still being taught in many schools. Can I extend my son's understanding and knowledge of reality in a way that he can pass intellectual exams if need be, but which also honors and builds on what he already so clearly knows. The same udnerstandings which so clearly had become a proven known part of the collective scientific human psyche (mainstrean publications or not) in the years before his birth. (and which have been seen/known in many different ways in different cultures for thousands of years).

My only query on this exceptional and very important book is why the last chapter is written in the past perfect ('had') instead of present or present perfect ( at least'have'). I personally read the book as gathering together my past experiences, insights, knowledge,, deeply affecting my present and that it must seriously and deeply inform my future from this moment on. In writing in the past perfect, it was almost as if the author wanted to seal off the findings herself. But they are here, present, they ARE the reality... these scientists have ensured that.. as has your writing them up.

In my much humbled view, I am the one who needs to change fast, instantaneously for that matter, if I am going to be of any help to my children rather than a useless conditioned dinosaur stuck in some out of date corner of time and space.... with appallingly unnecessary destructive habits. This book is a profound gift for any of us who have a need to transform fast so that we may be able to resonate a little better with those, probably your children too, who are already light years on.
