About the Book
In One Mind, New York Times best-selling author Larry Dossey, M.D., proposes an inspiring view of consciousness that may reshape our destiny. Dossey's premise is that all individual minds are part of an infinite, collective dimension of consciousness he calls the One Mind. This state-which we can all access-explains phenomena as diverse as epiphanies, creative breakthroughs, premonitions of danger or disaster, near-death experiences, communication with other species and with the dead, reincarnation, the movement of herds, flocks, and schools, and remote healing.Dossey presents his theory in easily digestible, bite-sized vignettes. Through engaging stories, fascinating research, and brilliant insights from great thinkers throughout history, readers will explore the outer reaches of human consciousness, discover a new way to interpret the great mysteries of our experience, and learn how to develop the empathy necessary to engender more love, peace, and collective awareness. The result is a rich new understanding of what it means to be human and a renewed hope that we can successfully confront the challenges we face at this crossroads in human history.Even before publication One Mind drew praise from the finest minds of our time. It has been heralded as "landmark," "a brilliant synthesis," a "magnum opus," a "feast" of ideas, "compelling," "gripping," and "a major shift in our understanding of consciousness."

Review :
One Mind is a magnum opus-delightfully inspiring and exciting-while also satisfying the requirements of rigorous scientific inquiry. Larry Dossey is a master storyteller, physician and critical thinker. And I love this book. -- Christiane Northrup, MD author of Women's Bodies, Women's Wisdom and The Wisdom of Menopause One Mind is a compelling, gripping, altogether convincing book about the nature of Mind and Consciousness and the deeply important role they play in our lives and our world. Do yourself a favour and start reading it right away! -- Ken Wilber author of Integral Life Practice Larry Dossey is a pioneer who keeps finding new frontiers. With One Mind, his merging of science and wisdom has come full circle, as Dossey makes the case for ancient spiritual teachings about the one and the many. I'm happy to embrace Larry as a kindred spirit. -- Deepak Chopra author of Spiritual Solutions Dr Larry Dossey's excellent book One Mind lays the groundwork for the coming global awakening of consciousness and helps map out the path toward it. Dr Dossey makes an eloquent case that such consciousness is, indeed, One Consciousness. His is the science of 2012 and beyond. -- Eben Alexander, MD author of Proof of Heaven: A Neurosurgeon's Journey into the Afterlife I have lived what Dr Larry Dossey writes about. I know and can prove consciousness is nonlocal. I have used nonlocal knowing to make diagnoses and help make therapeutic decisions for my patients. I have learned to live by my experience and not by limited beliefs. -- Bernie Siegel, MD author of A Book of Miracles and Faith, Hope & Healing This beautifully rendered masterwork from one of our most cherished sages of the spirit makes an eloquent and indisputable case for human consciousness as a singular entity. The sheer weight of mind-boggling evidence and compelling stories-from near-death experience and reincarnation, to creativity, ESP and crowd intelligence-demolishes the current 'mind equals brain' theory of modern science and expands our perception of how the world works. One Mind is Dr Larry Dossey's boldest and most majestic work to date, with a powerful, lingering message: nature has designed us to stay connected forever. -- Lynne McTaggart author of The Field, The Intention Experiment and The Bond Larry Dossey is not arguing simply for the existence of psychic phenomena, for which there is now much evidence, but for a deeper linkage we all share to One Mind which underlies our seemingly separate individual minds. This book combines a thought-provoking thesis with remarkable and vivid accounts of personal experiences. Only Larry Dossey could carry this off. -- Rupert Sheldrake, PhD author of Science Set Free: 10 Paths to New Discovery There is no more powerful idea than knowing and feeling our oneness to inspire the cooperation we so urgently need to create sustainability and humaneness in our world. -- Ervin Laszlo systems theorist and author of The Akashic Experience and Science and the Akashic Field Dr Larry Dossey's strong and lucid new book, One Mind, presents convincing evidence for shared coherent consciousness of both humans and animals-mental and physical experiences shared by friends, lovers, and identical twins separated by hundreds or thousands of miles. Very compelling reading. -- Russell Targ, PhD author of Limitless Mind and The Reality of ESP Heralded by the finest minds of our time as a major braekthrough in ideas destined to make a significant shift in our understanding of consciousness, this bok's scope and premise are awe-inspiring... Presented in absorbing, easily digestible bite-sized pieces, this book of profound scientific insight resonates beautifully with spiritual perspectives. Cygnus Review
