Dazzlingthe most thrilling tilt-a-whirls and daring loop-o-planes on the midway of higher consciousness. -- Tom Robbins

Does for quantum mechanics what Durrell's Alexandria Quartet did for Relativity, but Wilson is funnier. -- John Gribbin, physicist

Erudite, witty and genuinely scary -- Publishers Weekly

The mans either a genius or Jesus. -- Sounds, London

What great physicist hides behind the mask of Wilson? -- New Scientist

Wilson managed to reverse every mental polarity in me, as if I had been pulled through infinity. I was astonished and delighted. -- Philip K. Dick, author of Blade Runner

With his humorous rapier, Wilson pokes and prods our misconceptions, prejudices and ignorance. A quantum banquet. -- Ray Tuckman, Broadcaster, KPFK Radio

Product Description
Throughout human history, thoughts, values and behaviors have been colored by language and the prevailing view of the universe. With the advent of Quantum Mechanics, relativity, non-Euclidean geometries, non-Aristotelian logic and General Semantics, the scientific view of the world has changed dramatically from just a few decades ago. Nonetheless, human thinking is still deeply rooted in the cosmology of the middle ages. Quantum Psychology is the book to change your way of perceiving yourself --- and the universe. Some say it's materialistic, others call it scientific and still others insist it's mystical. It is all of these --- and none. The book for the 21st Century, complete with exercises. Picks up where Prometheus Rising left off. Some say it's materialistic, others call it scientific and still others insist it's mystical. It is all of these --- and none. Second Revised Edition!

Reader Reviews
Maybe this is what Clinton was referring to in his infamous linguistic/legal moment before the Star Inquisition. All joking aside, this book is a MUST read for anyone wanting to start getting rid of the semantic spooks in their psyche. This undefinable book of wisdom that weaves a coherent thesis out of such diverse topics as semantics, psychology, physics, model agnosticism and subtle humor makes clear better than anything out there just how much our perceptions and behavior are controlled/influenced by embedded language biases. Just learning to write in e-prime (english without the word "is") makes the book a worthwhile experience. Quantum Psychology opened me to a whole new way of thinking and perceiving, and that is something I can say but very few other books. I truly had no idea the robotizing effect language has on our behavior and perceptions--its not a discovery you can be "told"--you must experience it through the exercises in this book. You owe it to yourself to check this one out.
