Book Reviews of The Field Updated Ed: The Quest for the Secret Force of the Universe

Book Review: Great Science Writing!
Summary: 5 Stars

As usual, I'm late to the party on an epic work such as this. Don't let the materialist/reductionists fool you, like any other form of dogmatic thought (I wonder if those 2 words are in fact mutually exclusive - i.e., "dogmatic" & "thought"?) religious or scientific, the jury is still out - all the pieces of the puzzle are not in place! In fact, most of the pieces have yet to be discovered. Lynne McTaggart's writing style is fluid, descriptive, captivating yet reveals a paucity of personal opinion, which I commend, as I'm not so much interested in what she thinks but what she has to reveal. This is in direct opposition to other "reporters" who are more interested in editorializing than promoting their findings.

I generally don't provide spoilers in my reviews as I don't read books from an editorial perspective, but rather from the heart and/or mind as the case warrants. However one particular passage jumped off the page and took me into a quasi-samadhi experience. In paraphrase - Lynne was recounting a series of experiments that were designed to test the ability of people to interact with "The Field". It was shown that children naturally spend more time with their brains in alpha phase (as opposed to adults who's brains spend more time in beta phase) and it was concluded that children were consequently more adept at interacting with the field (i.e. the zero point field.) Now if one were to equate this "zero point field" with an undifferentiated state of being, of pure consciousness - oh heck, let's just for giggles call it heaven; didn't a wise man once say something to the effect "I tell you with certainty, unless you change and become like little children, you will never get into the kingdom of heaven."

This elegant work is replete with ah-ha moments like the one above. Inspiring, educational, joyful, luminescent. I adored this book!

Summary of The Field Updated Ed: The Quest for the Secret Force of the Universe

Science has recently begun to prove what ancient myth and religion have always espoused: There may be such a thing as a life force.

In this groundbreaking classic, investigative journalist Lynne McTaggart reveals a radical new paradigm-that the human mind and body are not separate from their environment but a packet of pulsating power constantly interacting with this vast energy sea, and that consciousness may be central in shaping our world.

The Field is a highly readable scientific detective story presenting a stunning picture of an interconnected universe and a new scientific theory that makes sense of supernatural phenomena. Documented by distinguished sources, The Field is a book of hope and inspiration for today's world.
