"Larry Dossey is one of America's most important thinkers. When he talks, I listen."--Marianne Williamson, author of A Return to Love In his New York Times bestseller Healing Words, Dr. Dossey investigated why patients surrounded by prayer healed faster and more completely than patients who were not. Now, in The Science of Premonitions, Dossey uses cutting-edge science to make a convincing case that premonitions are real, common, and helpful. Then Dossey explores research on mindfulness and meditation to show readers how they can cultivate and take advantage of premonitions. Packed with compelling case studies and thought-provoking findings, this is a book for the skeptical mind and the believer's heart, and will be greeted warmly by, as Deepak Chopra said, "anyone who is interested in knowing about the deeper meaning of our existence." (Deepak Chopra, M.D.)
If modern medicine is truly to be a healing art, says Dr. Larry Dossey, it must embrace three ideas it has too long ignored. It must address not only our bodies, but our minds and spirits as well; it must deal not only with the mechanism of illness, but with its meaning; and it must recognize that our power to heal and be healed extends beyond our physical bodies. Bestselling author Dossey is one of the most influential spokespersons for the role of consciousness and spirituality in medicine. In these writings, he explores the relationship - often documented in extensive research - between science and 'unscientific' topics such as prayer, love, laughter, work, war, creativity, dreams and immortality. Does the mind produce consciousness - or transmit it? Why has job stress become a worldwide epidemic? Could war be a biological condition? Why is fishing good for your health? How can science study the effects of prayer? Dossey tackles all these questions and more. Some essays are funny, some sober, some inspirational. Each in its own way challenges us to examine ourselves and our health in a new and different light.

The doctor - and bestselling author - who first demonstrated the healing effects of prayer now offers an unprecedented look at the science of premonitions. The Power of Premonitions takes readers through documented cases of premonitions, including a remarkable instance when an entire Nebraska community skipped church the very day it exploded; an examination of recent scientific study of 'presentiment'; a discussion of what it all means to daily life; and practical field-tested techniques for inviting premonitions. In this compelling new book Dossey uses cutting-edge science to prove the value of what has long been considered spiritual mumbo-jumbo. This is a book for the sceptical mind, but it's also for the believer's heart - because its author possesses the rare gift of having both.
I forrige århundre ble vi kjent med ulike oppdelinger av sinnet. Vi lærte om det bevisste og det ubevisste. I denne boken forteller Dossey om et annet bevissthetsnivå som vitenskapen først i de senere år har begynt å ta alvorlig. Dossey kaller dette nivået for Den Ene Bevissthet, og beskriver den som en universell, felles bevissthet som omfavner alt. Vi er alle del av Den Ene Bevissthet, og gjennom den er vi forbudet på tvers av tid og rom. Vår felles bevissthet er intelligent og uendelig. Bokens mange interessante cases spenner fra nærdøden-opplevelser, reinkarnasjon og psykiske evner til ikkeverbal kommunikasjon og fjernhealing. Alle disse fenomenene motstrider den materialistiske vitenskapsteori om at bevissthet er det samme som hjerne. Slik utvider boken våre oppfattelse av hvordan verden fungerer.
