Editor's Notes and Comments:
Product Description:
Based on interviews with today's cutting-edge scientists, investigative journalist Lynne McTaggart wrote The Field (HarperCollins, 2002)--a compelling presentation of the theory that there is a measurable 'life force' in the universe. Now in this original audio adaptation by the author, McTaggart takes listeners on a journey into this exciting arena of science called the 'Zero-Point Field' that could be the key to understanding 'supernatural' forces, healing energy, and the nature of consciousness. Offering a challenging new vision of the future--and insights on how this science can immediately affect our own lives--here is a unique opportunity to hear Lynne McTaggart as she unveils the mysteries, discoveries, and wonder of The Field.

Lynn McTaggart has done it again by providing us with more insight into how we can co-create successfully with Universal Energy....I've also read her book called "The Intention Experiment" and it was just great!
I especially enjoy The Field in audio CD format since I like the fact that it's based on the true story of pioneers in science and how they're developing understanding about 'consciousness.'
Just sit back and listen to this CD, what an amazing and enjoyable way to experience self growth and deepening insight.
A favorite recent novel that I also recommend works with similar ideas to the 'Zero Point Field' such as connectedness, and consciousness and provides a soul-stirring, spell-binding, as well as insightfull story about transformation...

I was extremely disappointed with the audiobook of The Field. I purchased it for a friend who is handicapped and unable to turn the pages for herself. Instead of getting the book on audio...I thought I was listening to an unending introduction to the book The Field. What a huge disappointment! Now I will have to read it to my friend instead. Do not waste your money!

The CD uses the title to Lynne's book "The Field" and the word "unabridged". This all implies to me that the cd is the book. I loved the book. If you think you're getting the book in any way, forget it. If you're a mystic and know you're going to get some type of free wheeling discusion of daily activities talking to people whose work may or may not have been in the book and maybe alluding to some of the content of the book, then buy the cd.

With an ear for human interest and eye for detail, Lynne McTaggart masterfully tells the true story in THE FIELD of how pioneers in science and consciousness research are working to achieve a more complete understanding of the true nature of reality -- an understanding which includes (rather than ignores) consciousness.
THE FIELD describes how scientists have gradually become aware of what appears to be a unifying energy structure in our universe. This "Zero Point Field" provides us with a simpler explanation for how things work than previous overly-complex ideas require. Simplicity in science is a good thing, because it generally indicates which theories will win out as time goes by. The Zero Point Field theory demonstrates it's elegant simplicity by allowing physicists to derive the famous equation F=ma (rather than take it as a starting assumption), and by helping medical practitioners understand the underlying scientific basis for homeopathy.
Our scientific conceptualization of this universe has changed considerably over the last few centuries and now faces one of the biggest overhauls ever -- and THE FIELD demonstrates why the Zero Point Field is likely to be the last frontier for us to explore. THE FIELD is packed with detailed descriptions of some of the most exciting experiments recently conducted by leading researchers in the field of consciousness such as: Cleve Backster, Jacques Benveniste, William Braud, Bob Jahn, Edgar Mitchell, Fritz-Albert Popp, Hal Puthoff, Rupert Sheldrake, Russell Targ, Elisabeth Targ, and Charles Tart.
I give this book my highest recommendation.

This book examines developments at the frontiers of science. Schroedinger, Heisenberg, Bohr and Pauli were the pioneers of quantum physics, but numerous scientists in various disciplines have been conducting experiments that reveal profound new possibilities in our view of the universe. The author investigates the work of those scientists who are at the cutting edge of exploration, all with reference to the life force, universal energy field or Zero Point Field, an ocean of microscopic vibrations. It would appear that evidence is mounting that the universe is one vast quantum field.
Part One: The Resonating Universe, looks at the work of amongst others, Rupert Sheldrake, Fritz Albert Popp, Robert O Becker, Jacques Benveniste and Karl Pribram. The theory of the universe as a collection of resonating frequencies is here examined. Part Two: The Extended Mind, explores the work of inter alia Helmut Schmidt, Jahn & Dunne and Puthoff & Targ. The topics include nonlocality, remote influence and viewing, dreams, clairvoyance, ESP, precognition, the nature of time and how the observer influences the observed, like quantum particles.
Part Three: Tapping into the Field, deals with the experiments of for example Elisabeth Targ and her positive findings of remote healing in AIDS cases, and the work of William Braud, Dean Radin and Roger Nelson. The concept of collective consciousness is fascinating. The speculations include the possibility that negative consciousness is like a germ that infects large numbers of people and could produce evil like the Inquisition, Hitler and the Salem Witch Trial.
On the other hand, positive consciousness might give rise to great periods in history, like the Renaissance and many benign popular trends. The question of the existence of emotional and intellectual synchronicity is addressed here. McTaggart also looks at developments in artificial intelligence and considers how these recent discoveries might influence the future. They are hinting at an immense human potential, validating alternative medicine and confirming some mythical and religious beliefs. The author believes that this scientific revolution has forever ended the concept of dualism.
The book contains notes by chapter, a vast bibliography and an index. McTaggart has performed a great service by making the research of a large number of scientists known to a wide popular audience. Sometimes the reading pleasure is lost in the overly detailed descriptions of various experiments and their preparation. Also, the physical descriptions of the scientists under discusion are often a bit irritating and unnecessary, although it might have been done to keep the narrative accessible and conversational.
