    5.0 out of 5 stars McMoneagle's Story
    Reviewed in the United States on December 27, 2012
    Verified Purchase
    Indeed, this is not the book to teach the reader how to "remote-view," but it's really a sort of an autobiography that became such an interesting read. This is McMoneagle's story.

    He started out with the definition of "remote-viewing" and then goes for 19 chapters in telling his story, including his near-death experience, recruitment into a special project to his retirement, the period of his writing "Mind Trek," and so on.

    It's a very interesting book about a well-known Remote-Viewer and his life. For those who are interested in RV, or any other paranormal aspects, this is a good book to read, in my opinion.

    4.0 out of 5 stars A good biography of a remarkable life
    Reviewed in the United States on August 29, 2013
    Verified Purchase
    This is a biography. For information on the remote viewing project itself see Remote Viewing Secrets by the same author. I also strongly recommend Mind Reach by Targ and Puthoff.

    Had I not met the author and several other people involved with the Star Gate research I would have dismissed McMoneagle's books as foolishness. Face to face I was impressed with his integrity. I also had the opportunity to work, briefly, with Ed May who ran the Star Gate project for a time and found him to be one of the most careful researchers I've known. Thus, unlike many, I cannot dismiss their research and its results. I now consider this to be one of the most important areas of ongoing scientific research.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Remote Viewing: "Possibly the single greatest discovery in our species’ history"
    Reviewed in the United States on February 23, 2019
    Joseph McMoneagle has been acclaimed the best operational Remote Viewer in the history of the U.S. Army's Special Project Stargate.
    To one unfamiliar with “remote viewing” this means little, so a definition, right from book is in order: “Remote viewing is a human ability to produce information about a targeted object, person, place, or event, while being completely isolated from the target by space, time, and other forms of shielding.” (For those who would claim this is impossible, I suggest they stay open to the evidence presented in this book and several others on the subject.)

    At the start of the book, McMoneagle states why he dedicated his life to the perilous pursuit of a seemingly odd intelligence activity that exposed him to ridicule and beyond: “It was then and still is my opinion that remote viewing is the greatest threat to my nation, and at the same time, possibly the single greatest discovery in our species’ history. Remote viewing, when used correctly, has a capacity to make extensively destructive and creative contributions in our development.”

    A must-read for anyone interested in the theory and practice of scientific remote viewing for any purpose, but one also peppered with critical details on other paranormal phenomena to be found in the toolbox of a psychic practitioner. McMoneagle also has much to say, based on extensive observation and experience, on the genesis of paranormal perception. An example of his balanced appraisal of the role of the Near-Death Experience (NDE) in the subsequent development of remote-viewing capacity: To those who cited his NDE (he had several) as the primary factor behind his exceptional remote viewing ability, he says, “I vehemently disagree with such a perception. It takes a lot more than a single experience to build the philosophic and spiritual structure of an individual. Certainly, an NDE has a great deal of impact, but it is more the straw that breaks the camel's back than a single transformational event.”

    For those interested in the history of remote viewing and its connection to the US Intelligence establishment, McMoneagle’s several decades behind that firewall gave him access to many of the people, places and activities that constituted the various official remote viewing programs, of which Stargate was one. He tells of the experiments that started at Stanford Research Institute in the early ‘70s with pioneers like Ingo Swann, Hal Puthoff, and Pat Price. He spent years in related programs at Fort Meade as a remote viewer for the government agencies. McMoneagle collaborated with Robert Monroe and his Institute for studying the development of consciousness during and after his military career. In other words, wherever remote viewing was being developed, by the government or private effort, McMoneagle was there, and his frank appraisal of all such endeavors under one cover are priceless.

    In the book, he concludes: “Regardless of how one might feel about the efficacy of using the paranormal for intelligence gathering, I can emphatically state that it works, it’s here, and it will continue to be reinvented from time to time, until it becomes part of the established, historically accepted background. Wishing it can’t, or won’t, doesn’t make it go away, and doesn’t make it any less effective in the new understanding of modern warfare techniques.”

    We have been duly warned. We remain ignorant of the paranormal at our own risk.

    This is renamed; it is originally The StarGate Chronicles. I just wouldn't want anybody to think it might be a different book. It's the same book, but in paperback format. You should read the reviews on tSC if you want to know more about this.

    5.0 out of 5 stars I was blind and now I can see
    Reviewed in the United States on September 29, 2008
    I read most all the books of Joseph McMoneagle, including "The Stargate Chronicles, Memoirs of a Psychic Spy", "Memoirs of a Psychic Spy" - yes I bought the same book twice because the titles were different... Doh!..., "Remote Viewing Secrets". Joe put his life on the line for me as true man of honor and patriot and I believe every word he writes in these pages. Plus I've seen him at work and know what he can do. Main stream science won't even look at the documented evidence. [...]

    This book had been recommended by several I know with interests in this field. I thoroughly enjoyed the read, hearing about the writers' background, and the experiments they conducted, as well as the actual exercises. Would certainly recommend to anyone exploring remote viewing as a 'must read'.
