About this title: What if all the separate images we see virtually every moment of our waking lives were actually part of the same whole? What if every mind was connected and inseparable from every other mind? And what if the universe were a projection of our consciousness? Synchronicities and previously inexplicable phenomena would be easier to understand, the ...

This must be one of the most fascinating, if not the most fascinating book I have ever read, and it is a must-read for anyone who is even remotely curious about who and what we really are or who wants to see spirituality meeting science. The claims that are made are backed up by numerous scientific studies, but it doesn't blow you away with scientific jargon. It's written in an easy-to-read style and the different chapters are split up into subsections, which also helps. Michael Talbot explains what a hologram is and then goes on to argue that the holographic model can be used to explain multiple personality disorders (extraordinary! - if you know nothing about MPD, then you absolutely must read this section), psychokinesis, miracles, the human energy field (or energy bodies), past/present/future existing seemlessly together, near death experiences (NDEs), UFO sightings and much more. Whether you accept the holographic theory or not, just reading the results of the various scientific studies mentioned in the book is fascinating and for me, personally, as a poet and author, it was also inspiring. The idea that everything is interconnected in this holographic universe of ours and is part of the same continuum inspired me, for example, to write a poem called 'My Life' to try and make sense of it ('...all that I see and don't see, hear and don't hear, touch and don't touch, smell and don't smell, taste and don't taste I am - I am the eternal energy of everything...'), whilst the story of the woman in the NDE chapter who said that 'she hadn't danced enough yet', making the being of light she was talking to laugh heartily and enabling her to return to physical life, gave me an idea for a children's story. In short, I found the book riveting and inspirational - jam-packed full of extraordinary scientific fact way more mind-blowing and thrilling than any science fiction I've ever read - and I am now reading it for a second time and will probably read it a third and fourth time as well!"
"Great book. Scientifically confirms the way we interact with reality. What is funny is that throughout the ages, many have in one way or another expressed the idea that we create our own reality. Here is the scientific explanation. Great book that might be a slow read for many. Match this book up with Quantam Physics and you will start to get a real understanding. Take a look at WuLi Masters by Gary Zukhov. That's a little easier to follow."
"Prepare to never again view the 'physical' world the same. What was cutting-edge quantum mechanics theory at the book's publishing date, somehow remain fascinating, and a bit chilling. An excellent blend of science, some fringe speculation, psychology and biology, Talbot makes it pretty impossible to come away from it untouched. The reader is more likely to be pensive, ponderous, and never quite the same.
Another that travels with me everywhere. If only there were a pocket edition! Enjoy."
"In a scientific atmosphere dominated by string theory, The Holographic Universe is a breath of fresh air. It explores the possibility of a universe that exists much as a true hologram, a theory which truly deserves a book of its own to do it justice, and it does this in a very accessible manner with a lot of metaphors and the like. It is an astounding theory, with some very interesting ramifications, and the book should be read by anyone with even a passing interest in physics."
