Molecular Memories

Bob Jahn and Brenda Dunne are well-known for their work at the Princeton Engineering Anomalies Research (PEAR) lab between 1979 and 2007. This book tells the story of the partnership and the results that reshaped our understanding of PK and other phenomena. If Bob is the particle, Brenda is the complementary wave that produces a unified system. The book will be of interest to all those who know about this work, and it was intriguing to learn that they deliberately avoided the term paranormal in formulating their name. Amusingly, when the lab closed in 2007, the University was bombarded with enquiries about why they had closed it down, which they had not. Nevertheless, the lab met with a lot of scepticism from colleagues. The underlying purpose was to bring science and spirit together and address essential questions about the nature of life and reality. As the reader can imagine, they have travelled considerably during their collaboration, and there are some nice recollections in this regard.
