This is one of the most interesting books I have read. It is the first time I read about this new concept and I liked the way it has been explained.
If Michael Talbot can be conned into writing about such people with obvious reverence an awe it doesn't say much for the rest of the so called "facts" in this book. This I found just a story too far.
I read the book with great interest and was happy to take as probably genuine the accounts of strange phenomenon and the ability of some people to perform miracles or super-human feats. This review is short and sweet.
He has an enormous following and is said to perform miracles and conjure gifts out of thin air for his admiring followers. That is until I reached page 150.
There I read about Sathya Sai Baba. A brief amount of investigation plus a look at some of the videos on YouTube was enough to convince me the man is a sleight of hand stage magician.
I shall persevere to the end of the book as I have paid out good money but to say I'm disappointed is an understatement.
I found this book full of interesting facts which helped to open my mind to the possibilities of the world of energy healing. It was well put together and easy to understand. I look at the human being, all beings in a very different way now.
I was disappointed. I stopped reading just short of the OOBE and UFO abduction sections.
about David Bohm's work, in particular, and the principles of holography. It was well-researched and well-written.
. Talbot jumps off the scientific track and The Holographic Universe becomes another book entirely, devoted to placebos, psychic healings, auras, hypnosis, psychokinesis, poltergeists, and more paranormal phenomena.
This is the book I thought I was buying. But Mr.
I flipped through the remainder of the book hoping to see more about holography. I handed the book to a friend who wanted to read it and told him he could keep it.
The most interesting book I've read in ages. In fact I'm going to dig it out and read it again;)
