Radiant Minds: Scientists Explore the Dimensions of Consciousness

wonderful book if you have a thirst for knowledge. These folks are the real deal. Loved it.

With public interest in the mind-body-spirit connection steadily growing, it's a wonder that some of the most fascinating scientific research remains secret. RADIANT MINDS introduces us to some of the most influential pioneers in the field of parapsychology who contribute tremendous insights into the greatest mysteries of consciousness and the mind, considering no area off limits or taboo. Articles by the dozens of researchers included in this book invite us to explore a holistic approach to science, and to question long-standing assumptions about who we are and how we interact with the world around us. Some of the topics include: distant healing, extra sensory perception, extraordinary dreams, global consciousness, intuition, precognition, psychoneuroimmunology, remote viewing, and telepathy.RADIANT MINDS is packed with colorful, insightful anecdotes and information that make this collection of articles and historical stories a delicious, page-turning, satisfying read. Stanley Krippner describes some truly extraordinary dreams, Dean Radin describes some cutting-edge research in the fields of precognition and global consciousness, and Willis Harmon questions long-standing scientific assumptions. I love Jeffrey Mishlove's forward, as he recalls insights about fascinating people, such as New York parapsychologist Charles Honorton, who tried to warn John F. Kennedy in June 1968 of Alan Vaughan's precognitive forecast of his likely impending assassination. I love the way each new chapter begins with a photograph and one-page biographical summary of each author--providing the extra perk of a built-in "Who's Who" of parapsychological science.If and when parapsychology becomes a major course of study in institutions of higher learning, RADIANT MINDS will surely be a required and essential text, as it does the best job of covering the past 25 years of scientific research in the field. Until then, this is highly recommended for everyone interested in a comprehensive exploration of consciousness and the mind.

For anyone interested in consciousness exploration out of curiosity, casual exercise or a spring board to more serious inquiry, Jean Millay's Radiant Minds: Scientists Explore the Nature of Consciousness, is a brilliant collection of articles that covers a vast panorama from some of the most important thinkers and scientists in the field. Both for those of us interested in clear overviews as well as for people with more advanced comprehension and need of reference points to navigate into deeper realms, there is a vast treasury of material covered including psi research, psychedelics, dreams, quantum physics,spiritual healing, shamanism and much more. Besides the excellent choice of articles themselves, this book has an extensive number of websites and biographies for even further pursuit.Socrates once said: "know thyself" and the essence of this pivotal statement is expressed well in both of Jean's books, Radiant Minds and also Multidimensional Mind: Remote Viewing in Hyperspace, which I strongly recommend be part of your bookshelf and continual search for understanding the nature of consciousness as well.

Dr Millay's new book, Radiant Minds, is a wonderful collection of ideas collected over the past twenty five years in the area of research into consciousness, physics, perception, and brain chemistry. Interesting to any inquiring individual the collection of essays flows well together in its exploration of progress made in an esoteric subject not previously well reported. Highly recommend for anyone curious in learning in the recent history of a fascinating subject. Dr John Quincy
