Product Description
The book you hold in your hands is revolutionary, a groundbreaking exploration of the science of intention.Drawing on the findings of leading scientists from around the world, The Intention Experiment demonstrates that thought is a thing that affects other things. It is also the first book to invite you, the reader, to take an active part in its original research.Using cutting-edge research conducted at Princeton,MIT, Stanford, and many other prestigious universities and laboratories, The Intention Experiment reveals that the universe is connected by a vast quantum energy field.Thought generates its own palpable energy, which you can use to improve your life and, when harnessed together with an interconnected group, to change the world. In The Intention Experiment, internationally bestselling author Lynne McTaggart takes you on a gripping, mind-blowing journey to the furthest reaches of consciousness.As she narrates the exciting developments in the science of intention, she also profiles the colorful scientists and renowned pioneers who study the effects of focused group intention on scientifically quantifiable targets -- animal, plant, and human. McTaggart offers a practical program to get in touch with your own thoughts, to increase the activity and strength of your intentions, and to begin achieving real change in your life. You are then invited to participate in an unprecedented experiment: Using The Intention Experiment website to coordinate your involvement and track results, you and other participants around the world will focus your power of intention on specific targets, giving you the opportunity to become a part of scientific history. A new Afterword by the author recounts the successes of the several Intention Experiments so far. The Intention Experiment forces you to rethink what it is to be human. It proves that we're connected to everyone and everything -- and that discovery demands that we pay better attention to our thoughts, intentions, and actions. Here's how you can.

 heard most of this before November 15, 2009
Wasimah (New Mexico)
Let me start by saying that I am a McTaggart fan. However, if you've read a few books on quantum physics, you will already be familiar with the direction of the research anecdotes that fill the first 11 chapters of the book. Yes, we know by now our minds influence our realities. I don't need all this convincing.
Since I subscribe to McTaggart's "Intention Experiment" newsletter, chapters 12, 14, and 15 were also not new information. I skimmed parts of the book and really only read chapter 13, the "Intention Exercises" which comprised a scant 13 pages of tips for optimal intention conditions. This section was helpful, but superficial when compared to the depth she spent on the first 12 chapters leading up to it.
Unfortunately, I ordered McTaggart's "Living with Intention" CD set before reading this book, and now I'm not sure I want to hear the CDs if she's just going to keep rehashing the same stuff. When the set arrives, I may just send it back.

The Intention Experiment: Using Your Thoughts to Change Your Life and the World
This wonderful, scientific journal by Lynne McTaggart continues her discussion on the idea of intention and our reality. Her award winning presentation definitely lights a path to making the most complicated ideas very relatable.
The Intention Experiment becomes everyone's practicum in discovering the many ways we observe reality through intention, which is the condenser that crystallizes energy into patterns we can see and understand through the physical senses. If we observe these patterns, even under the scrutiny of scientific control, many mysteries of inter-connectivity become apparent.
In taking this objective a step further, her book helps us observe behavior of energy and matter through science as an infinite, nonlocal 'experience' within our finite 'experimentality.'
The Power Of Consciousness November 2, 2009
Lindsay N. Bowker (Stonington, Maine)
In Quantum theory , "the world" is comprised of two "systems",the system containing the observer and the system containing what is observed. Until the observer focuses his attention on the observed system it exists only as a host of infinite possibilities. The observer observation or measurement "fixes" its reality. That is the scientific theory. Hard enough for us mere mortals to grasp or integrate it with what we have been taught. From quantum theory it is almost irresistible to move to a consideration of how intention, rather than mere observation or objective measurement might work in our world and that is what this thought provoking book does. The experiments are about whether intention can change outcome or even in one experiment, can change a previously measured reality. It explores the power of consciousness and invites readers, through excercises in the book and through the web site to become part of an ongoing living experiment in consciousness. I found the experiments fascinating, engaging and worthy of reflection..and I found reflection on them energizing. I recommend it enthusiastically for anyone who is at work on increasing their own awareness and trying to live fully present in the moment.
very interesting....the next step in our universe of thought...so long to old science and theory...we are changing October 4, 2009

Enjoyed both books by McTaggart. All new..this quantum physics thing. and she has done well to research all top centers on what is happening in this area Did hear of her on Coast to Coast radio.

I LOVED this book!
For so long, I felt like I was watching my life crumble and was waiting for something to happen to make it stop. Then I realized, I have the power to change this. I started reading several books (including Excuse Me, Your Life Is Waiting: The Astonishing Power of Feelings, Spiritual Liberation: Fulfilling Your Soul's Potential and The Rich Switch - The Simple 3-Step System to Turn on Instant Wealth Using the Law of Attraction) but, by far, The Intention Experiment made the greatest impact.
See, it's all about living with awareness and doing things in a diliberate way. This book convinced me to trust my judgment and know there is a higher power out there who is working with me to make my life better.
This isn't a recipe book that will simply take you from nothing to a million dollars overnight. This is a book that gives you back your power.
