OverviewTime Is Not What You Think It Is. Neither Are You. Welcome to a world where participants in psychology experiments respond to pictures they haven't seen yet ... where physicists influence the past behavior of a light beam by measuring its photons now ... and where dreamers and writers literally remember their future. This landmark study explores the principles that allow the future to affect the present, and the present to affect the past, without causing paradox. It also deconstructs the powerful taboos that, for centuries, have kept mainstream science from taking phenomena like retrocausation and precognition seriously. We are four-dimensional creatures, and sometimes we are even caught in time loops-self-fulfilling prophecies where effects become their own causes.

I consider Time Loops to be the most significant intellectual work on a paranormal topic in the last fifty years, since Jacques Vallee's Passport to Magonia (1969), to be precise. Not only does Eric Wargo show us how strong the evidence for precognition really is--already a major accomplishment. He gives us scientific, psychological, and interpretive tools for thinking about these phenomena in strikingly original ways. In the process--the real stunner for me--he points us toward (or looks back from) the future of knowledge, a future in which the humanities are as crucial as the sciences. Buckle up tight and get ready for the roller coaster ride of your life. And why not? As Wargo shows us with astonishing rigor and humor, these 'time loops' may well be our lives. -- Jeffrey J. Kripal, the J Newton Rayzor Professor of Religion at Rice University, and the author Mutants and Mystics and Secret Body and co-author of Changed in a Flash Eric Wargo writes with epic breadth, keen observation, deep rigor and--above all--great integrity on a topic of innate controversy. He succeeds gloriously in providing this century's first historical and analytic overview of precognition and its causes. -- Mitch Horowitz, PEN Award-winning author of Occult America and The Miracle Club Time Loops is the definitive inquiry into cases of people who remember their future. Eric Wargo is the Sherlock Holmes of retrocausation. -- Nick Herbert, author of Quantum Reality and Faster Than Light For those who wonder if experiences of precognition are real, or perhaps just coincidences or mistakes of memory, Time Loops provides a well written, balanced overview of the latest scientific interpretations of these mind-bending phenomena. Spoiler alert: Based on an increasing body of experimental evidence, yes, precognition is real. -- Dean Radin, Chief Scientist at the Institute of Noetic Sciences and the author of Entangled Minds and Real Magic Author InformationERIC WARGO has a PhD in anthropology from Emory University and works as a science writer and editor in Washington, DC. In his spare time, he writes about science fiction, consciousness, and the paranormal at his popular blog, The Nightshirt. Besides Time Loops, he is also the author of Precognitive Dreamwork and the Long Self: Interpreting Messages from Your Future. Tab Content 6Author Website:Countries AvailableAll regions |
