'Imagine if we could shut off all negative thoughts, so that everyone was only thinking positive thoughts. What a wonderful world we would create ' In her latest exploration of the link between modern-day science and the paranormal, Ingrid Fredriksson explores the power of thought: the experiments that have been carried out, the experiences that can be had and the possibilities that have yet to be discovered. She shows the links between magnetic fields and yogic practices, between quantum mechanics and remote viewing, and discusses the impact that thought can have on our everyday lives. The Power of Thought builds upon Ingrid Fredriksson's earlier works, Flow Forever and The Third Book.

Albert Einstein once said: 'The most incomprehensible thing about our universe is that it can be comprehended.' But how much do we really know about the universe? Is it only three-dimensional or are there more dimensions beyond our everyday perception? What is the relationship between the physical and the spiritual realms? Taking Einstein's theories as a starting point, Fredriksson considers the nature of the universe and explores the limits of scientific knowledge in a thought-provoking discussion of issues and ideas that go to the heart of a question we all ponder... is there some form of life after death?

In these modern times, everyone is subject to stress, alienation, anxiety and a multitude of other negative energies, which burden us unnecessarily. Perhaps if we all learned to be content with ourselves and find our inner balance, the world would not be in the state of destruction that it is today? For Fredriksson, the three main religions of the world, in their multiple, fragmentary forms - Christianity, Judaism and Islam - are insufficient and lacking. Rather than uniting humanity, they are segregational, differential and conservative. There needs to be a fusion of religions, ideas and practices to match the needs of the 21st century and for this, the author looks to the East - meditation, Buddhism, Zen, Hinduism - which embrace and accept difference and which focus on the introspective building of well-being and equilibrium as the locus for change and progress, rather than an aggressive imposition of wills which becomes the power play of domination and submission which we currently suffer from. A very accessible text, combining information, references, DIY tips as well as personal anecdotes, which will inspire enthusiasts and first-timers alike.

Throughout the ages, the mystery of what happens when we die and the nature of the human mind has fascinated humankind. In this thoughtful collection of essays, leading scientists and authors contemplate the nature of consciousness, quantum mechanics, string theory, dimensions, space and time, non-local space, the hologram, and the effect of death on the consciousness. Although traditionally considered a matter for philosophical and religious debate, advancements in modern science and in particular the science of resuscitation have now enabled an objective, scientific approach to seek answers to these compelling questions, which bear widespread implications not only for science, but also for all of humanity.
