Measuring the Immeasurable

Cover of Measuring the Immeasurable Can your thoughts heal another person, even from across the globe? Can meditation create “superhuman” levels of perception? Do prayer and intention actually affect reality?A few decades ago, scientists would have dismissed such ideas as superstition. Today, a growing body of persuasive research has turned many scientific thinkers into believers in the power of spiritual practice. Measuring the Immeasurable brings together some of the most prominent and informed authorities on the new frontier where science and spirituality intersect, including:

  • Rick Hanson on “7 facts about the brain that incline the mind to joy”
  • Peter Levine on trauma and spirituality
  • Dan Siegel on the mindful brain
  • James Austin on the brain circuits of selfless insight
  • Daniel Goleman on “the brain’s melody”
  • Bruce H. Lipton on the science of epigenetics, and how consciousness shapes our health, genetics, and evolution
  • Charles Tart on consciousness

It’s a superb book, and I recommend it highly.
