Richard L. Thompson was born in Binghampton, New York, in 1947. In 1974 he received his Ph. D. in mathematics from Cornell University, where he specialized in probability theory and statistical mechanics.
Dr. Thompson has done scientific research in quantum physics, mathematical biology, and remote sensing. He has extensively investigated ancient Indian astronomy, cosmology, and spirituality, and he has developed multimedia expositions on these topics. He is the author of six books on topics ranging from consciousness to archeology and ancient astronomy.
"...I learned that the basic philosophical ideas...are virtually identical with those which quantum mechanics leads me to." -- Eugene Wigner, Nobel Prize for Physics, 1963
"...think it is an important book which would be of interest to many people." -- Brian Josephson, Nobel Prize for Physics, 1973
The author makes a special point that science has not satisfactorily described creativity, inspiration, hope, love, and consciousness. -- Dr. Fred M. Menger, professor, Emory University, Atlanta
