THE FRED ALAN WOLF RADIO CONVERSATIONS ON NEW DIMENSIONS RADIO

1. THE QUANTUM FACTOR with FRED ALAN WOLF. The connection between quantum physics and human consciousness forms the centerpoint for Wolf's original and provocative views. He revolutionizes our conception of how the mind works and shows us how quan tum physics is directly related to our physical, psychic and spiritual selves. As a physicist himself, Wolf has made the leap required by quantum theory: to accept the reality of paradox and the insecurity of change. A limitless panorama of exciting possibilities develops during this conversation. Fred Alan Wolf is the author of Taking the Quantum Leap (Harper & Row 1981) and Star Wave: Mind, Consciousness and Quantum Physics (Macmillan 1984). Tape #1930 1 hr. $9.95

2. QUANTUM PHYSICS AND THE BODY/MIND with FRED ALAN WOLF. An amazing journey unfolds as Wolf, a physicist, correlates quantum physics with the basic processes of life and its unfoldment. He tells how human consciousness can be explained in terms of quantum physics and how, through the "observer effect," we can affect our own health and/or disease. According to Wolf, the body quantum has the role of bringing to mind all the forms and contents of the physical world. The future becomes limitless as he describes the enormous implications of the body quantum. He is the author of The Body Quantum (Macmillan 1986), Star Wave (Macmillan 1984) and Taking the Quantum Leap (Harper & Row 1982). Tape #2016 1 hr. $9.95 Members' price: $8.46

3. QUANTUM DREAMS AND REALITIES with FRED ALAN WOLF. If consciousness arises out of matter, reasons this physicist/philosopher, and if dreams are a form of consciousness, does that mean that the universe itself dreams? This enthralling conversation takes us on a guided tour of some of the latest research and most creative current scientific theories about consciousness and dreams. Encompassing the dreams and consciousness of animals; lucid dreams; UFO abductions; quantum physics; telepathy; synchronicity; and much more, Wolf's provocative concepts guide us to a sense of wonder and respect for the mysteries of our dreams, our minds and the universe. "The self does seem to be a construction of the brain-body-mind," he says. "And the dream is a very important laboratory for that construction to take place." Wolf is the author of several books including The Eagle's Quest (Simon & Schuster 1991) and The Dreaming Universe (Simon & Schuster 1994). Topics explored in this dialogue include:

* scientific research and theories related to dreaming and consciousness
* lucid dreams and varying levels of awareness within them
* the difference between Freud's and Jung's concept of dreams
* what quantum physics says about the future "pulling us" toward itself
* how congenitally blind or deaf people experience dreams
* to what degree our behavior is really "conscious"
* the scientific puzzle of UFO abductions
* a thumbnail biography of the brilliant physicist Wolfgang Pauli
* synchronicity as the "key to rich meaning" that holds the self together
* Wolf's own "holographic" theory of how the brain processe dreams
