I feel like I read a different book than the other readers here. I was hoping for a scientific exploration of things that are considered “magic” (aka not believed by scientists as true or possible at all), but instead I felt like this was a long justification for calling these things magic and for the study of them. There was little to no scientific evidence, and the author kept likening things like telepathy to religion. Kaku or Tyson this was not.

Profound

Deep, thoughtful, and provocative, I really enjoyed Radin’s style and approach. One of my favorite passages: “Many scientific and scholarly disciplines are slowly coming around to the idea that consciousness is far more important than previously imagined. This shift of opinion, combined with the idea that reality is a form of information, provides a renewed appreciation of ancient esoteric legends about magic.”
Highest recommendation to read for anyone interested in psi and/or magic.
