Overview

"From the Preface It is long past time to discuss the ultimate questions such as ""why are we here?"" ... We need the answers in order to have the intestinal fortitude to stand up and do whatever it takes to overcome the challenges facing civilization today. Scientists can do much to help humanity simply by acknowledging that there is no scientific basis for ruling out the possibility that the universe is intelligent. This simple and eminently justifiable (if not overdue) act of open-mindedness can permeate world culture, causing personal reconsideration of everything by everyone. Because it is a more positive view than materialistic accidentalism, an increase in hope and courage is a logical outcome. In his third work of non-fiction, Emmy(R) Award winning author Bill Harvey draws extensively on well-sourced quotes by Albert Einstein and John Wheeler, as well as on his own unorthodox imagination, in making his case. I wrote this book mainly for physicists but also for everyone. I'd like physicists to accept the scientific possibility of something very much like ""God"", and to prioritize the subject."

Harvey creates a thought-provoking dialogue that encourages scientists and readers alike to adopt bigger-picture perceptions of the universe's possibilities...The breadth and scope of this inquiry is unprecedented. Its major value, aside from individual contemplation, will be to spark equally vivid and unusual discussions in professional circles where such talks typically bow to hard, observable science over ethereal suppositions. Ideally [the book] will receive equally wide-ranging attention and attraction-from spiritual and scientific circles to book club readers and debaters...who seek works that don't just reflect the boundaries of human experience and possibility, but challenges them. -D. Donovan, Sr. Reviewer, Midwest Book Review Impassioned call for the study of the possibility of an intelligent universe...Harvey draws on Einstein and John Wheeler, quantum mechanics and Eastern spiritual traditions, to make the case for exploring the possibility of a First Self who created all of this, and of a One Self, connecting us all. The work is searching, and Harvey urges readers to be, too, laying out a series of experiments for individuals... -BookLife Reviews by Publishers Weekly

Author Information

Emmy(R) Award winner and media research industry leader, Bill Harvey has foretold and shaped the future of media for over 35 years. Bill published his first book, MIND MAGIC, now in its sixth edition, in 1976. He currently has six books in distribution, three nonfiction and three science fiction. His writing, including the sci-fi series Agents of Cosmic Intelligence, is focused on helping individuals become more effective. In works of fiction, he demonstrates the strengths of his characters in action, and zooms in on the inner processes that these characters use. Bill's worldview is open-minded, scientific, inclusive of the possibility that the universe is conscious, and that each of us experiences the consciousness of the universe as our own consciousness, and that reality at its core is consciousness, with matter and energy being phenomena projected within consciousness. In his nonfiction books, he provides experiments that the reader can do, which could lead them to the discovery that their hunches are meaningful, and that the universe might be trying to give clues to each of us.
