BOOKS FROM ICRL PRESS

IN THE BEGINNING: Creation Myths from Around the World
by Carolyn North and Adrienne Robinson

IN THE BEGINNING: Creation Myths from Around the World is a beautifully illustrated and informative collection of creation stories from 15 cultures, using indigenous sources. These stories demonstrate that creation is ongoing, everywhere and always, and that all of us are creators all of the time. This engaging book of images and stories is ultimately about creativity in all its forms. Originally an exhibition, IN THE BEGINNING has appeared in museums, galleries, churches, and schools in several U.S. cities. An audio version of the book, in which the myths are read by Amy Walker, is available from Findhorn Press at http://www.findhornpress.com.

Filters and Reflections: Perspectives on Reality
Edited by Zachary Jones, Brenda Dunne, Elissa Hoeger, and Robert Jahn.

This new book is a series of essays related and responding to the PEAR laboratory publication, “Sensors, Filters, and the Source of Reality." This anthology presents an assortment of perspectives on how consciousness creates its experiential reality through an array of subjective “filters” by which “we endeavor to infer, either intuitively or analytically, composite functional models of our world and of ourselves.” Taken together, the individual contributions serve as an array of lenses that amplify the seminal essay.

Margins of Reality: The Role of Consciousness in the Physical World
"WHAT HAS MODERN SCIENCE SWEPT UNDER THE RUG? This pioneering work, which sparked intense controversy when it was first published two decades ago, suggests that modern science, in the name of rigor and objectivity, has arbitrarily excluded the role of consciousness in the establishment of physical reality. Drawing on the results of their first decade of empirical experimentation and theoretical modeling in their Princeton Engineering Anomalies Research (PEAR) program, the authors reach provocative conclusions about the interaction of human consciousness with physical devices, information-gathering processes, and technological systems. The scientific, personal, and social implications of this revolutionary work are staggering. MARGINS OF REALITY is nothing less than a fundamental reevaluation of how the world really works."

Margins of Reality, by Robert G. Jahn and Brenda J. Dunne. Updated edition, 432 pages, 2009 ICRL Press.

Order "The PEAR Proposition" DVD/CD Set:

A multi-DVD/CD set entitled “The PEAR Proposition,” sponsored by ICRL and produced by Aaron Michels of Strip Mind Media, can be ordered on-line from this site. This educational collection is a major element in the archival representation of the Princeton Engineering Anomalies Research program as it concluded its 28-year tenure at Princeton University. The DVDs offer the viewer a synopsis of the program’s history; a virtual tour of the PEAR laboratory; four lectures by Bob Jahn; informal commentaries by staff members, interns, operators, and friends; an assortment of downloadable PEAR publications; and sundry interstitial material that attempts to capture the spirit and substance of the PEAR enterprise. The CD records a conversation between Bob Jahn and Brenda Dunne in which they talk about the interpersonal dynamics that have characterized the program, and share their perspectives on the interpretations and implications of its research results.

The cost of this set is $50 (USD), plus $12 for shipping and handling (second-day courier). To place an order, click on the “Buy Now” button below.

ICRL-PEAR Webcourse: Consciousness and the Physical World

Consciousness and the Physical World is dedicated to the development of collaborative resources for teaching and learning about consciousness.

The first course that we have developed is based on the work of the PEAR lab (external link) (cache). We have put this course material together, and we are making it freely available, in order to provide a concise introduction to the research of the PEAR lab and foundational research of the emerging Science of the Subjective.

The course is organized for students unfamiliar with these topics but it also contains much detailed material and links to current research so that an advanced student will also find much of value. Like a university course, it assumes a certain level of background education. In this case, some understanding of the scientific method and statistical analysis will be assumed.
