| What the Bleep Do We Know!?: Discovering the Endless Possibilities for Altering Your Everyday Reality by HCI Spiritual ramblings galore |
| Got this book as a gift and read a few pages in order to know what it's really about. Conclusion: it's not for me. Pages after pages of spiritual ramblings and open ended questions with nothing to add. Talks all the time about quantum physics and related concepts without having no real idea of what it really means and without making any effort for properly defining what exactly they are talking about. That's just an example of some of the open-ended questions and science "buzzwords" mentioned throughout this non-sense book. |
| What the Bleep Do We Know!?: Discovering the Endless Possibilities for Altering Your Everyday Reality by HCI Fun and informative |
| My Buddhist teacher recommended this book and movie as a companion to his own teachings. I especially enjoyed "Dr. Quantum" Fred Alan Wolf. Check it out along with FREE YOUR MIND by Sensei Anthony Stultz. |
| What the Bleep Do We Know!?: Discovering the Endless Possibilities for Altering Your Everyday Reality by HCI A Work of Art and Science |
I love this book because it is not only thought-provoking and paradigm-shattering (and how I love exploring new paradigms!), but it is a beautiful work of art in itself. The watermark backgrounds, the illustrations and the celestial colors make this book a sensory delight. The sidebar quotes and interesting juxtapositions of art and text make this book easy and pleasurable to peruse without actually having to sit down and read to enjoy it.
This book is full of thought-provoking ideas about the nature of reality, spirituality and quantum physics. Of particular interest was a segment about the studies done by Dr. Masaru Emoto and outlined in his book "The Hidden Messages of Water", which demonstrates that thought and intention change the characteristics of the water itself.
There are many quotes from respected physicists peppered throughout the book, as well as the movie the book is derived from. I found the movie to be more entertaining, but the book is great for just picking up to ponder an idea. You can open the book anywhere and find interesting ideas to think about without necessarily reading it cover to cover.
I'm glad to see this melding of science and spirituality begin to hit the mainstream. We've always known intuitively that they cannot exist separately. To me, this is the only way life makes sense.
The discovery by scientists years ago that the observor of an experiment actually influenced the outcome of that experiment was only the beginning of a radical change in our collective understanding of the workings of consciousness. This book and movie demonstrate very powerfully that thoughts and beliefs shape the reality we experience, both individually and collectively.

| I thought the movie was great but the book is even better. The book goes more in depth with the topics than the movie and they were also able to explore the inspiration behind the making of the film. This book was my best book purchase in 2007. Robert Spencer |
| What the Bleep Do We Know!?: Discovering the Endless Possibilities for Altering Your Everyday Reality by HCI This could have been a truly great book. |
| While the authors seemed quite sincere, the message was diluted. The contributors were so dynamic that describing the process or providing examples seemed to take out much of the punch inherent in the message. I guess it's like trying to explain the tao. |
| What the Bleep Do We Know!?: Discovering the Endless Possibilities for Altering Your Everyday Reality by HCI Product Description |
Everyone is still talking about the movie What the Bleep Do We Know!? Now comes the paperback edition of the book based on the mind-boggling movie that grossed $11 million in the U.S. alone. As the movie did, this book compels readers to ask themselves Great Questions that will recreate their lives as they know them. With the help of fourteen leading quantum physicists, scientists and spiritual thinkers, this book guides readers on a course from the scientific to the spiritual, and from the universal to the deeply personal. Along the way, it asks such questions as : Are we seeing the world as it really is? What are thoughts made of? What is the relationship between our thoughts and our world? Are we biologically addicted to certain emotions? How can I create my day every day? What the Bleep answers this question and others through an innovative, new approach to self-help and spirituality that's far different—and more exciting—than anything else on bookshelves. More than twenty short, focused, interactive chapters take readers on a journey that will integrate the answers to these Great Questions into every aspect of their lives. |
