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.

 Excellent book on Consciousness for lay people December 16, 2008

This is an excellent book for anyone interested in human consciousness study. Well written and only required a little bit of scientific background.
 Scientific proof of The Truth/How the Universe Works/the "paranormal" December 8, 2008
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
This book covers a small band of scientists from various parts of the world that broke the mold and bravely did research where others, wanting the funding, would not dare to go. Their discoveries were considered heretical, but their passion for truth was more important than recognition and money. Anyone skeptical of the paranormal will be convinced after reading these experiments.
As the book explains, science changes a funeral at a time, as people entrenched in ideas must often die before new paradigms can be accepted. Also powerful monetary forces keep us locked into old ways of rigid thinking (thinking controlled by the petroleum/pharmaceutical/banking/agri-system corporations).
The book is sprinkled with some really good tidbits of info, such as that women are better at multi-tasking than men, that there is scientific proof that we can create reality through our intentions, that our consciousness is everywhere in our bodies (not just the brain), and that when a couple bonded in a relationship focuses on something, it is six times stronger than when a single individual does.
This book makes a great companion book with The Holographic Universe by Michael Talbot. The two together answer the question of how the universe works.
 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.
