Product Description Time Is Not What You Think It Is. Neither Are You.Welcome to a world where participants in psychology experiments respond to pictures they haven’t seen yet … where physicists influence the past behavior of a light beam by measuring its photons now … and where dreamers and writers literally remember their future. This landmark study explores the principles that allow the future to affect the present, and the present to affect the past, without causing paradox. It also deconstructs the powerful taboos that, for centuries, have kept mainstream science from taking phenomena like retrocausation and precognition seriously. We are four-dimensional creatures, and sometimes we are even caught in time loops—self-fulfilling prophecies where effects become their own causes. Review "[T]his is the most interesting and well-argued book about a paranormal topic I have read in several years...This book could be a Newton-plus-apple moment in the understanding of many currently way out there phenomena that we have investigated with frustrating lack of progress for many years..." -- Jenny Randles, Magonia "With his well-researched magnum opus Time Loops, it seems that Wargo hopes to drive forward the field of parapsychology from a scholarly position... The book itself is inspiring overall for the obvious time, effort, and scholarship put into its pages, as well as the clear commitment to cross-disciplinary thought ... Time Loops made me consider that perhaps causal loops are not only responsible for precognition, they are responsible for us having any continuous sense of self at all. " -- Julia Mossbridge, Journal of Scientific Exploration "What Wargo has done is to present a closely argued case for the reality of precognition ... I strongly recommend this well written and very interesting book to psi-sceptic and psi-believer alike as essential reading on this subject." -- Robert A. Charman, Society for PsychicalResearch "I consider Time Loops to be the most significant intellectual work on a paranormal topic in the last fifty years .... Not only does Eric Wargoshow us how strong the evidence for precognition really is--already amajor accomplishment. He gives us scientific, psychological, andinterpretive tools for thinking about these phenomena in strikinglyoriginal ways." -- Jeffrey J. Kripal, author of Secret Body and The Flip "Eric Wargo writes with epic breadth, keen observation, deep rigorand--above all--great integrity on a topic of innate controversy. Hesucceeds gloriously in providing this century's first historical andanalytic overview of precognition and its causes." -- Mitch Horowitz, PEN Award-winning author of The Miracle Club About the Author Eric Wargo has a PhD in anthropology from Emory University and works as a science writer and editor in Washington, DC.
