Product Description
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.

 Only a start.... November 29, 2008
As the last line of the book was so succinct in stating, the ideas of "the field" may indeed alter science forever, but it is, "only a start." I would not recommend this book if you desire a technical analysis. For example one small gripe I have is the author barely glossed over how the REG machines worked on their own (without consciousness influencing them). Another small problem is that the author does not breach far into refuting arguments against the field. Essentially the book describes a series of varying experiments and then explains what the evidence means to supporting the field. The topics hone down to one major category: the science of mind and body and their connection. But towards the end she goes into alternative energy and the space programs, which was unexpected, but it definitely fit logically. Don't expect to find explanations for how quantum reality works and how physicists envision it. Mctaggart does not explain this beyond the very basic tenets, which she warns of this limitation in the preface. However she does hint at topics being more contentious than the way she presented. An example is reconciling Einstein's relativity with quantum mechanics, something that is one of the biggest issues in physics today. Mctaggart does not tell us this, but on the issue of alternative energy it is obvious one can infer this. Finally, Mctaggart does do a good job of summing up the main points of the book in the end. The main points being that the old paradigm of Newton's foundation for science is not the complete puzzle. Mctaggart summarizes by recapitulating the fields basic implications. These are the following: there is more to the universe than just what is tangible, everything including DNA has a frequency and everything is connected by the field. It is a promising work and if you are interested in the experiments you will do fine with enjoying the book.
 Great! November 5, 2008
Gives scientific proves of the ENERGY and experimental physics that can lead the world to a real change in energy technology, health and others.
The Fieldis staggering in its scope. October 4, 2008
With a little imagination and a lot of scientific corroboration, THE FIELD gives a unifying model for life and its relationship with the universe and ultimately with the life force called God.
 Good Book September 30, 2008
Good book, very detailed.
If your concern is scientific experiments, documented proof and results - this is the one for you.
If you already believe in the filed and want to learn how top use it - this is not the one for you.
Underpinning the future September 25, 2008

If you are interested in the future (and we all should be) read this book. It is one of those books that makes you realise that everything you were ever taught at school, and a lot of what you learned after school, was pretty much a waste of time, because life is simply not the way they said (and are still saying today). The Field provides a wealth of scientific evidence that supports a view of life that many people suspect (somewhere deep in their consciousness), but few have been able to put their finger on. The more you understand what is written in this book the more you recognise that society is at a pivotal point, not because of the environmental crisis, nor the financial crisis, nor any global security crises. Radical change is on the horizon because our understanding of life itself is changing. This is the most profound change we can imagine and this is the most exciting time to be alive in the history of human life.
