Praise for Fred Alan Wolf

The Yoga of Time Travel is one of the most imaginative books I have
read about the nature of time. It makes us wonder zf time travel is possible, not only through the use of technology, but through yoga, which
anyone can practice.
-AMIT GOSWAMI, PH.D., authorof Physics oftheSoul

In The Yoga of Time Travel, Fred Alan Wolf takes the reader beyond
the normal boundaries of space and time into the world of the infinite,
eternal spirit. He blends physics and spirituality in a way that is both
seamless and intriguing.
-GLEN KEZWER, author of Meditation, Oneness, and Physics

Wolf is at the forefront of creating a new integral science that includes
psychology, physics, and spiritual thinking. In The Yoga of Time
Travel, he makes.concepts such as black holes, the space-time continuum, and parallel universes something we can feel.
-ARNOLD MINDELL, PH.D., author of
The Quantum Mind and Healing

Fred Alan Wolf's Mind into Matter breaks new ground that is both
enthralling and energizing, giving us maps to explore consciousness and
the cosmic mystery. This is quantum alchemy at its finest.
-MICHAEL TOMS, cofounder and host of New Dimensions Radio

Entering Wolf's The Spiritual Universe is like stepping into a laboratory in a spaceship careening through the universe and manned by a
philosopher-scientist. If you have a head for scientific reasoning, you'll
enjoy the spirited journey. If you're a romantic, earthbound, poet-type
lzke me, you're in for some mind expansion.
-THOM AS MOORE, author of
The Reenchantment of Everyday Lzfe

The Spiritual Universe creates a brilliant New Physics of theSoul and
ushers us into the third millennium with deepening faith, bold heart,
and profound insight.
-ERNEST L. ROSSI, PH.D., author of
The Psychobiology of Gene Expression

Fred Alan Wolf's Parallel Universes is a wild intellectual ride-an
enthralling read.
