Review:
Provocative and accessible, this book is ultimately less about hard science and more about the mind-body problem and philosophy of materialistic science.--Library Journal

"Mario Beauregard shows convincingly that the materialistic philosophy of the 19th century is an impoverished framework incompatible with contemporary science, from physics to psychology. The concepts he develops in Brain Wars are required reading for scientific literacy in today's world."--Bruce Greyson, M.D. Research psychiatrist, University of Virginia. Co-author of Irreducible Mind

"Dr. Beauregard describes that our mind/consciousness has a fundamental and irreducible nature, and that it sometimes can be experienced independently from the body because it is not limited to our brain. Brain Wars clearly announces the end of physicalism, reductionism, materialism and objectivism in science."--Pim van Lommel, cardiologist, author of Consciousness beyond Life

"Brain Wars explains why the prevailing brain-mind paradigm is falling apart and why we are increasingly being forced to reconsider the nature of consciousness. The consequences of this paradigm shift are profound, and Mario Beauregard does a magnificent job in explaining why."--Dean Radin PhD Co-Editor-in-Chief, Explore: The Journal of Science and Healing Senior Scientist Institute of Noetic Sciences

"In this ground-breaking work, neuroscientist Mario Beauregard cites a range of scientific studies challenging many widely held materialistic assumptions about the relation between the mind and brain."--B. Alan Wallace, Ph.D. President, Santa Barbara Institute for Consciousness Studies

"The assumption that the brain makes consciousness, like the liver makes bile, and that human consciousness is confined to the brain and body, will not endure because it is unscientific, and cannot account for how consciousness manifests in the world. In this important book, Dr. Mario Beauregard shows why."--Larry Dossey, MD Author of Reinventing Medicine and The Power of Premonitions
