A hopeful and controversial view of the universe and ourselves based on the principles of quantum physics, offering a way of making our lives and the world better, with a foreword by Deepak Chopra

In Infinite Potential, physical chemist Lothar Schäfer presents a stunning view of the universe as interconnected, nonmaterial, composed of a field of infinite potential, and conscious. With his own research as well as that of some of the most distinguished scientists of our time, Schäfer moves us from a reality of Darwinian competition to cooperation, a meaningless universe to a meaningful one, and a disconnected, isolated existence to an interconnected one. In so doing, he shows us that our potential is infinite and calls us to live in accordance with the order of the universe, creating a society based on the cosmic principle of connection, emphasizing cooperation and community.

Editorial Reviews

Review

"When quantum physics emerged in the twentieth century, many of its grand architects believed it held valuable lessons for how we lead our lives. In Infinite Potential, Dr. Lothar Schäfer shows why. What emerges is not just a beautiful exposition of modern physics, but a powerful bridge that connects science, psychology, and spirituality. One cannot be a proper citizen of the twenty-first century without an awareness of the lessons in this gem of a book."
--Larry Dossey, MD, author of Reinventing Medicine, The Power of Premonitions, and The One Mind

“In this learned and daring analysis of the revolution in quantum physics, Lothar Schafer opens a door that cannot be closed: Science is teaching us that the world, and our role in it, is malleable to human choice and awareness. This radical truth, as Schafer explores, may shift our sense of possibility and self-conception in the twenty-first century in a manner similar to how Darwinism challenged human perceptions in the Victorian Age.”
--Mitch Horowitz, author of Occult America and One Simple Idea: The Secret History of How Positive Thinking Reshaped America

"Lothar Schäfer's Infinite Potential presents ideas about the nature of reality, and our role in it, that at first seem utterly ridiculous. But as the book unfolds, his arguments become increasingly plausible. By the conclusion his ideas are both obvious and shocking. This tale of radical cosmic holism is not a flight of fancy or mystical revelation. It is firmly grounded in science and told by a distinguished professor of physical chemistry. A careful reading will transform your assumptions about who and what you think you are."
--Dean Radin, author of Super Normal

how to best live your life

November 21, 2015

Format: Kindle EditionVerified Purchase

The author stays faithful to the science, which is not always the case with books of this genre. His theories are interesting, to be sure, but I found some of his ideas verging on the implausible and at times supported by demonstrably inaccurate interpretations of the underlying science. Undoubtedly, however, a fundamental understanding of quantum theory bears in it profound implications for the ultimate in philosophical questions: how to best live your life. I gave this book 4 stars not necessarily because I agree with its conclusions, but because it does a good job describing the premises from which anyone may derive important notions about the nature of existence and its implications in approaching life.

Infinite Potential, a life-changing masterpiece!

April 24, 2013

Format: HardcoverVerified Purchase

It would be easy to think that any book which strives to capture the link between quantum physics and how we should live would have to be highly intellectual, difficult to comprehend and perhaps even heretical. Not so with Dr. Lothar Schäfer's enlightening new book, Infinite Potential. As only a dedicated scientist with exceptional spiritual sensitivity can, Schäfer masterfully weaves a strong scientific foundation with wisdom of the ancient spiritual teachers, creating a tapestry of unparalleled beauty. His keen wit and easily accessible style, deftly complemented by pertinent stories and helpful examples, leads readers through a purposeful, clear and inspirational journey into deeper meaning---one that molds science and spirituality into a unified whole.

Infinite Potential is a "must read" for novice and expert alike. It will surely inspire readers to a new found understanding of life and how one might better live it. By all means, add this gem to your personal library!

Infinite Gratitude

Format: Kindle EditionVerified Purchase

I am eternally grateful for this scientific documentation of what I have believed from a Spiritual perspective for sometime. If you are concerned about the direction national and global events are moving this is a "must read." Dr. Schafer lays out a clear and concise explanation with excellent diagrams how the Cosmos is inviting all of us to use our inner infinite potential to live productively as we discover our purpose in life.

A difficult read

February 17, 2014

Format: Kindle EditionVerified Purchase

....that I could not put down. If you are not science smart, which I am not, it will make this a hard read and yet, I wish this were a 10-volume series so I could dig deeper into the subject of quantum physics from a layperson's perspective and be able to share some of this knowledge.

Much better than most

August 14, 2013

Format: HardcoverVerified Purchase

Not the easiest author to read but his subject matter is not that easy to understand. Nevertheless, please read this book. It is important. It is about your "world view", your underlying "life psychology". The message has a depth that popular new age writers rarely reach. It also bestows honor and meaning to humankind. Please read this book.

Brilliant

January 13, 2015

Format: HardcoverVerified Purchase

I love this book. Anyone who has struggled to reconcile spirituality with the empirical world, the world of form, will gain fresh and mind-expanding perspective. The style of writing is lovely and the insights are brilliant. I think many potential readers are put off by the term "quantum physics" in the subtitle, but the concepts here can be grasped by any layman, like myself, due to the clarity of the authors words.

Terrific book.

Format: Kindle EditionVerified Purchase

Terrific book.. Its intense and hard to read.. because dahh.. it's Quantum physics.. But keep it up-- it soaks in somehow
I could actually watch the NoVA special on the Cosmos with Brian Greene- and understand it! Its fantastic and inspiring how learning about the natural World thru science like this can draw you closer to spirituality, and our mysterious and mystical world within and around us. It's Beautifully written- I feel i a little window has opened and I made a litle quantum leap !

He has a lot of provocative and interesting things to say, but takes too long and rambles. Jumps to conclusions. A difficult book to read.

I found this book to be both inspiring and motivating. Being a Christian and a scientist it challenged me to rethink my positions openly.

Love the scientific point of view.
