WHAT HAS MODERN SCIENCE SWEPT UNDER THE RUG? This pioneering work, which sparked intense controversy when it was first published two decades ago, suggests that modern science, in the name of rigor and objectivity, has arbitrarily excluded the role of consciousness in the establishment of physical reality. Drawing on the results of their first decade of empirical experimentation and theoretical modeling in their Princeton Engineering Anomalies Research (PEAR) program, the authors reach provocative conclusions about the interaction of human consciousness with physical devices, information-gathering processes, and technological systems. The scientific, personal, and social implications of this revolutionary work are staggering. MARGINS OF REALITY is nothing less than a fundamental reevaluation of how the world really works.

Geared toward advanced undergraduates and graduate students, this text develops the concepts of electrical acceleration of gases for propulsion, from primary physical principles to realistic space thruster designs. 1968 edition.

When Robert G. Jahn and Brenda J. Dunne first embarked on their exotic scholarly journey more than three decades ago, their aspirations were little higher than to attempt replication of some previously asserted anomalous results that might conceivably impact future engineering practice, either negatively or positively, and to pursue those ramifications to some appropriate extent. But as they followed that tortuous research path deeper into its metaphysical forest, it became clear that far more fundamental epistemological issues were at stake, and far stranger phenomenological creatures were on the prowl, than they had originally envisaged, and that a substantially broader range of intellectual and cultural perspectives would be required to pursue that trek productively. This text is their attempt to record some of the tactics developed, experiences encountered, and understanding acquired on this mist-shrouded exploration, in the hope that their preservation in this format will encourage and enable deeper future scholarly penetrations into the ultimate Source of Reality.

BOTH A REFLECTION AND A PRODUCT OF THE MIND This book does not offer a quantum mechanical 'explanation' of human consciousness. Rather, it proposes something far more radical: namely, that quantum mechanics, like any other model of human representation, is both a reflection and a product of the mind, and is fundamentally intuitive, describing a reality of which we are an integral component. ROBERT G. JAHN is Professor of Aerospace Sciences and Dean, Emeritus of Princeton University's School of Engineering and Applied Science, founder of the PEA R laboratory, and Chairman of ICRL. BRENDA J. DUNNE holds degrees in psychology and the humanities, was the director of the PEA R laboratory from its inception in 1979, and is currently President of ICRL.

Fachbuch aus dem Jahr 2014 im Fachbereich Biographien, , Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: Der Autor, ein promovierter Historiker, war historischer und genealogischer Fachberater des MDR und der Klassik Stiftung Weimar bei den Fernsehdokumentationen „Der Friedrich-Schiller-Code“ und „Schillers Schädel-Schicksal“. In diesem Zusammenhang hat er sich intensiv mit Schillers Familiengeschichte und Genealogie beschäftigt. "Schillers Genealogie" ist der dritte und abschließende Teil seiner Forschungsarbeiten, die im Grin Verlag erschienen sind. Einerseits werden die bekannten Fakten präsentiert (Mannesstamm, Ahnentafel), andererseits wurden neue Forschungen angestellt und hier erstmals vorgestellt (Mutterstamm Friedrich Schillers, Mutterstamm seiner Frau Charlotte, die bisher noch unbekannten Nachkommen von Schillers Schwester). Dann gibt es noch Aufsätze über verwandte Themen: - War Charlotte v. Lengefelds erste Liebe ein Hochstapler? - Die Bedeutung der Wolzogen-Lengefeld-Wurm-Verwandtschaftsgruppe für Schiller. - Die Frage, ob Schiller einen außerehelichen Sohn hat. - Die irreführenden Wappen verschiedener Schiller-Adelsgeschlechter. - Und wie ein falscher Schiller-Schädel (RZ) dazu beritragen konnte, das Rätsel um die letzten beiden Kinder der ermordeten Zarenfamilie zu lösen.
