À propos de cet audio
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.
Eric Wargo has a PhD in anthropology from Emory University and works as a science writer and editor in Washington, DC. In his spare time, he writes about science fiction, consciousness, and the paranormal at his popular blog, The Nightshirt. Time Loops is his first book.

“I consider Time Loops to be the most significant intellectual work on a paranormal topic in the last fifty years …. Not only does Eric Wargo show us how strong the evidence for precognition really is—already a major accomplishment. He gives us scientific, psychological, and interpretive tools for thinking about these phenomena in strikingly original ways.”— Jeffrey J. Kripal, author of Secret Body
“Eric Wargo writes with epic breadth, keen observation, deep rigor and—above all—great integrity on a topic of innate controversy. He succeeds gloriously in providing this century’s first historical and analytic overview of precognition and its causes.”— Mitch Horowitz, PEN Award-winning author of The Miracle Club
Excellent narrator, thoughtful material.

My review is mediocre, as the book is about 4 hours too long. The author makes his case early and then repeats potential examples of his theory over and over.
It was difficult for me to follow as I am not familiar with much of his area of study. He is very knowledgeable in Freud, Jung and other intelligencia in the psychological discipline.
In fact, I used the word "hermeneutics" in the title as I was not familiar with that term and he never defined it (yes I finally looked it up). This is just an example of the scholarly approach used. While the book appears to use academic references and a form of logic to come to a conclusion, I admit that much of it was above me - or rather did not interest me.
The Author is admittedly open to criticism and scrutiny which I appaud; however, I read it out of interest not scholarly review. On that basis, it was not an enjoyable read/listen. I hope others can gleen more out of it. I also wish to acknowledge his excellent effort of scholarship.
