An End to Upside Down Thinking: Dispelling the Myth That the Brain Produces Consciousness, and the Implications for Everyday Life

Consciousness creates all material reality. Biological processes do not create consciousness. This conceptual breakthrough turns traditional scientific thinking upside down. In An End to Upside Down Thinking, Mark Gober traces his journey--he explores compelling scientific evidence from a diverse set of disciplines, ranging from psychic phenomena, to near-death experiences, to quantum physics and beyond. With cutting-edge thinkers like two-time Nobel Peace Prize nominee Dr. Ervin Laszlo, chief scientist at the Institute of Noetic Sciences Dr. Dean Radin, and New York Times bestselling author Larry Dossey, MD, supporting this thesis, this book will rock the scientific community and mainstream generalists interested in understanding the true nature of reality. Today's disarray around the globe can be linked, at its core, to a fundamental misunderstanding of our reality. This book aims to shift our collective outlook, reshaping our view of human potential and how we treat one another. The book's implications encourage much-needed revisions in science, technology, and medicine. General readers will find comfort in the implied worldview, which will impact their happiness and everyday decisions related to business, health, and politics. Stephen Hawking's A Brief History of Time meets Eckhart Tolle's The Power of Now.

About the Author :
Mark Gober is an author whose worldview was turned upside down in late 2016 when he was exposed to world-changing science. This science suggested that contrary to mainstream assumptions, consciousness is not produced by the brain. After researching extensively, he wrote An End to Upside Down Thinking to introduce the general public to these cutting-edge ideas--all in an effort to encourage a much-needed global shift in scientific and existential thinking. Mark is a senior member of Sherpa Technology Group in Silicon Valley, a firm that advises technology companies on mergers and acquisitions and strategy. He previously worked as an investment banking analyst in New York. Mark has been quoted for his opinions on business and technology matters in Bloomberg Businessweek and elsewhere, and he has authored internationally published business articles. He graduated magna cum laude from Princeton University, where he was captain of the tennis team.

Review :
"A great service to the cause of advancing knowledge and its proper application to our thinking and our life." -- "Dr. Ervin László, Nobel Peace Prize nominee and author of The Intelligence of the Cosmos" "Ever wonder why you are thinking of someone and moments later they call or connect to you? Magic? Coincidence? Maybe not. New information on what we call phenomena is brilliantly shared in this must-read book! New pathways of the mind will open and perhaps shift your perception of reality, time and space, and above all consciousness! Bravo." -- "Goldie Hawn" "I love this book. An End to Upside Down Thinking will get you thinking. This book is full of positive, insightful and powerful information." -- "Jack Canfield, New York Times bestselling author" "If you'd like to know what was left out of your college education, there's no better place to begin than this easy-to-read survey of the mind-boggling nature of reality." -- "Dr. Dean Radin, chief scientist at the Institute of Noetic Sciences" "Just the kind of book needed to inform the general reader about a highly significant and potentially life-changing debate and to give impetus to a beneficent, global sea-change required in approaches to science and philosophy." -- "Geoff Ward, Homerton College, University of Cambridge" "Mark Gober's An End to Upside Down Thinking shows with broadly extensive examples how the conventional nineteenth-century commonsense dogmatic materialistic worldview has no basis in fact. Scientific revolutions always begin with a steady accumulation of anomalous evidence. The consciousness-as-reality revolution will likely be difficult as the current paradigm is deeply entrenched in seats of authority and power. This book promises to open the minds of many potential contributors to the growing mountain of anomalies and to the highly imaginative among us that can ground these puzzling phenomena in a comprehensive and clear theory. Send a copy to everyone you know." -- "Loren Carpenter, computer scientist, founder of Pixar, and two-time Academy Award winner" "Revolution is in the air, and Mark Gober is out front carrying a banner...This is one of the most incisive indictments of the materialist view of consciousness I've read." -- "Larry Dossey, MD, New York Times bestselling author" "The scientific study of the mind-brain relationship, including all manner of human experiences, combined with the deepest mysteries of modern physics, are leading to an unprecedented shift in human understanding of the nature of reality, one that many in the field feel will make the Copernican Revolution seem minuscule by comparison. In An End to Upside Down Thinking, Mark Gober provides a broad sketch of the relevant scientific lines of inquiry to support this inevitable, yet very empowering and optimistic, shift in understanding of the nature of human existence. Especially as one realizes the damage that has been done by our reigning materialistic paradigm and its false sense of separation, the promise of this newest unifying scientific revolution becomes clear--we must grow into this new understanding, if for no other reason than to survive." -- "Eben Alexander, MD, #1 New York Times bestselling author"
