Includes bibliographical references (pages 275-308) and index.

Emerging studies have shown that the One Mind isn't just an idea; it's a reality. In this book, Larry Dossey shares compelling research that supports the One Mind concept. These cases include experiences of: shared thoughts, emotions, and physical sensations with a distant individual, communication between humans and sentient nonhumans, such as pets, large groups of animals--flocks, schools, herds--behaving in highly coordinated ways, acquisition of previously unknown knowledge from a person who has died, hidden or lost objects found through mental means alone, and direct contact with a transcendent domain through near-death experiences, Through engaging stories, fascinating case studies, and brilliant insights from great thinkers throughout history, One Mind explores the outer reaches of human consciousness. In it, you will 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.
