Science and Human Transformation: Subtle Energies, Intentionality and Consciousness

Dr. Tiller's excellent book, SCIENCE AND HUMAN TRANSFORMATION, boldly goes where few books dare to enter. Tiller presents a fascinating model of our universe as being multi-dimensional with a spiritual component. This book will likely be enjoyed most by readers who have experienced psychic or psycho-kinetic events in their lives, and are seeking a rational explanation for what might be going on. Those who have not yet had such experiences may not be convinced that such things exist -- even after reading Tiller's fascinating account of how he created a gas-discharge device in the 1970's while he was a professor at Stanford University which demonstrated that "anyone could produce a positive (psychokinetic) result". SCIENCE AND HUMAN TRANSFORMATION is a joy to read for anyone who loves to play with new ideas and theories. It contains a wealth of schematic diagrams, charts, equations and references to support the theories Tiller presents. This book will most appeal to readers who love books they can ponder for some time, as it is packed with such ideas as: sensory arrays, etheric light cones, nodal networks and holograms. The main point of SCIENCE AND HUMAN TRANSFORMATION is that the component of mind and consciousness has long been excluded from scientific study, and even omitted from Theories Of Everything (TOEs). Obviously, if we're going to have a theory of everything it had better include consciousness! Tiller knows this quite well, and artfully constructs a bridge for future scientists with open minds to cross over to a place where unseen things (such as human energy fields) have huge effects. If we want to know what has eluded us for so long, we need to go to the very places which are currently least well understood. SCIENCE AND HUMAN TRANSFORMATION provides a sturdy bridge for us to reach those previously unknown places.

I am a sophomore undergrad in biomedical engineering, and there were parts of the book that were over my head, I understood most of it though. This book is obviously a product of many years of research and experimenting. I can see where a lot of the science community would want to close their minds to such a book. For example research and experiments with people with clairvoyance. William Tiller treats all of this subject matter in scienctific manner. Roger Stout's review shocked me, I could not believe it when he said how the book made him laugh and that it did not recover from the silly beginning. My guess is that when Roger went looking for follow up reading to Mike Talbot's Holographic Universe with scientific "meat", he found a book with more scientific "meat" than he could handle. I admit, that it is a bit complicated. But the subject matter is one in which must be complicated, if it is to be tackled from a scientific point of view. This book changed my life and helped me to figure out what I want to research in the Biomedical field. I believe that this book was a risk for William Tiller, and I bet that some of his colleagues don't appreciate this book. That is why I am(and others are) sincerly grateful to William Tiller for writing this book.

There are two types of personalities in life, and they are also manifested in scientists. The first type is one who relies on vertical facts. This type of thinking results in established limitations and, often, a dogma of conventionality. The second type is lateral or circumspectual thinking. This person innovates and is not moved by the limitation doctrine characteristic of the straight educational process. Dr. William Tiller in Science and Human Transformation shows himself to be the second type. More and more we are led to apprectiate the cybernetic process with regard to each cell in our body. Each of the 80 billion carries its own DNA and acts like it has its own mind. Each is influenced by its effect on the whole. This complete integration is what the biologic sciences are all about. It has long been known that light has been shown to behave as a wave and a particle and that each is used in the process of light which has led to the controversies. Not only has Tiller offered methods for dealing with the mechanisms simultaneously, but has opened the door for the whole resonance-frequency phenomenon. Maybe Tiller has also unlocked the door to an understanding of the spirit of Love that bothers many who prefer to keep it in mysticism. Maybe, still further, we are on the threshold of a new era in physics dealing with mass and energy that cannot be quantified with the present assays of matter. Materialization and dematerialization are a part of transformation that should not be swept under the table. Tiller has dared to go outside the old box.

I suspect that Roger Stout set out to try to trash this book without first going through the effort of seriously reading it. This can be readily seen from the word equation that he misquotes. He obviously didn't read the surrounding text with any care to see what kind of a pedagogical bridge I was building via that set of word equations. The point about direct space and reciprocal space that seems to have eluded Stout is that, together, they aoutomatically provide for both the particle aspect and the wave aspect of substance, the two fundamemental but entangled features dealt with by quantum mechanics. The novel approach that I have taken in this book allows one to distinquish these two complementary aspects simultaneously. Furthermore, it is surprising to me that a supposed professional engineer would make the mistake of trying to compare the distance scale of reciprocal space since this is a frequency scale. They do not have the same units of measurement and, therefore, cannot be directly compared, as undergraduate engineers in all universities are taught. If Stout had not been so intent on his "lashing" goal, he might have realized that the very small in direct space corresponds with the very high frequency region in reciprocal space. Likewise, the very large in direct space corresponds with the very small frequency region of reciprocal space. Since high frequency for photons corresponds with high particle energy, he shold have at least seen how the particle size scale in the angstrom and below range match qualitatively with the energetics of fundamental particles. As an illustrative example, if a time domain pattern has a 10 nanosecond interval, then its frequency domain counterpart along the inverse time coordinate would be comprised of a set of waves localized around 0.628 gigahertz for the first band. Likewise, if one has a direct spaces spherical object of 1 angstrom diameter, the first band counterpart in reciprocal space would be comprised of waves in the 6.28 x 10 ^8 cm ^( -1) range. Changing the scale of direct space units that one wishes to use just produces a corresponding scale change of the reciprcal space units one must use. Stout states how much he liked Talbot's book, "The Holographic Universe", yet he seems to have missed the crucial point that the entire basis of holography is wave diffraction. Further, the resultant wave intensity diffracted from any kind of direct space geometrical object can be shown to arise from the modulus of the Fourier Transform for that geometrical shape. He should have learned this in his electrical engineering classes. It is sad that Stout was so intent on trashing this book rather than reading it with an ip mind-he might have learned something useful for his life! As a final comment by the author to this open forum , this book was not in any way casually written, and I know that is is challenging for some readers. However, one should keep in min

Tiller, former head of the Materials Research Department at Stanford and accomplished researcher in crystalography, presents a summary of his evolving model of subtle energies. This work includes discussions of familiar physics, such as the nature of basic particles, and presents data on less well known studies including the influence of volition on physical processes. Tiller's aim is to present a theory of physical reality which incorporates more than the familiar 4 dimensions, and new variables, including consciousness itself. His theory is a work in progress, similar in its basic premises to the alternative version of quantum theory advanced by David Bohm. Tiller's theory is still undergoing development but his ideas are intriguing and the possible applications he describes are fascinating. The one flaw seems to be a blend of informal theorizing, such as borrowing from the Budhist world view, with a more formal scientific theory, without clearly distingishing between the two. In any event, I highly recommend the book.
