Synopsis

"Does the nature and belief of the observer have anything to do with what is observed?" The most comprehensive examination of the role of causality in our understanding of reality, this book is the fruit of the Institute of Noetic Sciences' Causality Project: research into what constitutes reality, and how things happen. We ask whether the fundamental assumptions embedded in the current scientific paradigm place "blinders" or at least boundaries on what contemporary science is free to discover.

About the Author

Willis Harman (1918-1997) was widely recognized as one of the practical visionaries of our time, he was deeply committed to working with global transformation that is evidently part of our immediate future. He exemplified the integration of spiritual and intellectual knowing that is at the heart of the work of the Institute of Noetic Sciences, where he was president until his death in 1997.

For 16 years, Harman was Senior Social Scientist at SRI International, a global-futurist think-tank in Menlo Park, California. He was emeritus professor of Engineering-Economic Systems at Stanford University, and a member of the Board of Regents of the University of California.
