The Quantum Doctor—A Free Talk by Amit Goswami
<br />When is yoga more appropriate than allopathy? How does acupuncture relieve pain? Is spontaneous
<br />healing possible? Is healing a spiritual journey?
<br />Professor and author Amit Goswami answers these questions and more in a talk titled "The Quantum
<br />Doctor" at the Downtown Eugene Public Library, March 4, 3:30 - 5:00 p.m. According to Goswami, the
<br />quantum doctor integrates conventional and alternative medicine, and is concerned with healing not only
<br />the physical body, but also the “subtle energy body” and the mind.
<br />
<br />A professor emeritus in the physics department of the University of Oregon who was recently featured in
<br />the film What the Bleep Do We Know!?, Goswami is a pioneer of a new paradigm: science within
<br />consciousness. His most recent book is The Quantum Doctor. Goswami is well-known as the author of
<br />the textbook Quantum Mechanics, as well as popular titles including The Self-Aware Universe, Physics of
<br />the Soul, Quantum Creativity, and The Physicists’ View of Nature, which traces the decline and
<br />rediscovery of the concept of God within science. This event is sponsored by the Eugene Public Library,
<br />Friends of the Library, and the Library Foundation. For more information, contact the Eugene Public
<br />Library at 682-5450.
