“Arguing Science: A Dialogue on the Future of Science and Spirit” by Rupert Seldrake and Michael Shermer

Magick Matters

"Two controversial authors debate the nature and methods of science, its dogmas, and its future. Rupert Sheldrake argues that science needs to free itself from materialist dogma while Michael Shermer contends that science, properly conceived, is a materialistic enterprise; for science to look beyond materialist explanations is to betray science and engage in superstition. Issues discussed include: materialism and its role in science, whether belief in God is compatible with a scientific perspective, and parapsychology. Michael Shermer is Editor-in-Chief of Skeptic magazine and the author of numerous books including Skeptic. Rupert Sheldrake is a biologist and author of ten books including his most recent, Science Set Free, which challenges scientific dogma."...>>

“The Presence of the Past: Morphic Resonance and the Habits of Nature” by Rupert Sheldrake (revised ed)

Magick Matters

"Rupert Sheldrake's theory of morphic resonance challenges the fundamental assumptions of modern science. A world-famous biologist, Sheldrake proposes that all self-organizing systems, from crystals to human societies, inherit a collective memory that influences their form and behaviour. Rather than being ruled by fixed laws, nature is essentially habitual. All human beings draw upon a collective human memory, and in turn contribute to it. Even individual memory depends on morphic resonance rather than on physical memory traces stored within the brain. Morphic resonance works through morphic fields, which organize the bodies of plants and animals, coordinate the activities of brains, and underlie mental activity. Minds are extended beyond brains both in space and time. This...>>

“Excalibur Briefing: Explaining Paranormal Phenomena” by Thomas E. Bearden (2nd revised and expanded edition)

Magick Matters

"Look into the fascinating and mysterious world of paranormal phenomena and the interaction of mind and matter in terms of the new physics. In this quintessential guide, Tom Bearden uses a sampling of paranormal phenomena that demand explanation to drive a theoretical framework that enables us to understand psychotronics, UFOs and psi phenomena. The book also covers new military applications of psi research, and Soviet phase-conjugate directed-energy weapons. Because of its revolutionary content which pulled the veil back from the “hidden sciences,” incredible efforts were made to suppress this book."...>>
