Does the mind produce consciousness--or transmit it? Can machines detect love? Why has job stress become a worldwide epidemic? Why do objects sometimes seem to have minds of their own? Could war be a biological condition? Dr.
Larry Dossey, one of the most influential spokespersons for the role of consciousness and spirituality in medicine, tackles all these questions and more with clarity and wit.
In this book, he explores the relationship--often documented in extensive research--between science and unscientific topics such as prayer, love, laughter, war, creativity, dreams, and immortality.
