Not as informative or exciting as promised - Rated 
From other reviews I would have expected more substance to this book. It is mostly very superficial, particularly in the scientific detail and yet radical conclusions about the nature of living organisms are being made by the author. It did, however, inspire me to read more about the issues raised.
Challenges everything you've been taught about genetics - Rated 
What a challenging read. It leaves me with more unanswered questions, so I'm off to by Robin Williams' Psych-K!
This is one book that really will 'change your life' - Rated
This book by a cell biologist updates you on what you thought you knew about DNA, RNA and the behaviour of cells. It could have been dull academic reading, but Bruce Lipton's style and attitude make this a refreshing and fascinating read.
I have shelves full of self-development books claiming to 'change your life'. This book explains to me, at the level of cellular memory, why they don't work, what's missing from the formula. And what I can do about it.
More importantly, it is a wake-up call to orthodox doctors, drug companies and genetic engineers who are meddling with life like Mickey Mouse in the Sorcerer's Apprentice. Their science is, it is claimed, based on a Newtonian, Darwinian mechanistic view that was outdated science 70 years ago but is still being accepted without question today by graduates of the life sciences and medical schools.
It is a life-affirming, fascinating book and I am actively promoting it among all my friends. I thoroughly recommend that buy this important book.
The Bridge Between Biology, Quantum Reality, and YOU. - Rated
I'd put this book up there with Pert's "Molecules of Emotion", various of Chopra, and others based less on the esoteric nature of things, but more on scientific fact.
The book shows that there *is* another way to look at things, rather than just accepting blindly the [scientific] dogmas of our predecessors. If you're looking for that link between science and spirituality, then start here.
The book takes the reader on an exciting journey of discovery and revelation, challenging long-held beliefs on certain aspects of Biology and Physics, to arrive at a radically new and different explanations for how our DNA - and ultimately our very being - happen to be.
The author has taken a few knocks in life - as have most of us - and this comes through in the writing. However, those 'knocks' have clearly realigned his traditional academic conditioning and outlook on to a course of independent, pure creativity within his area of expertise, without the constraints of academic funding or peer-review looking over his shoulder all the time. Spending time in the Caribbean obviously gave him this break, and while other academics would probably look down on this judgmentally as a retro-step, it provided the fertile ground for this type of change to take place.
The book gave me the Biology 101 overview that I so desperately needed. As a physicist, I was able to fill-in the blanks when it came to the Quantum Mechanics side. As a spritualist, it all made such wonderful sense when the two came together.
Fantastic, A-1, thanks for such a great read.
Hope to combine Spirituality and Science - Rated 
I have just completed reading this book which was so refreshing and exciting. I think the book has made a good case to challenge the Newtonian approach to science and posits a case for considering energy as the source of matter. This means that what we see is more then matter and therefore the possibilities are infinite. Spirituality has always made a case for things outside the realm of matter and this book will enable many to explore this other dimension for health and healing. Hopefully complementary medicine will have a stronger footing to explore the realms that have so far been seen as pseudoscience and this applies to psychiatry as well. Psychiatry has courted with allopathic medicine and therefore has undercut its progress in the area of the subconscious. Now we have some evidence to explore this area for health and healing. High time we pushed forward in this area and spear head the frontiers that are yet to be explored for our good.
There are other approaches to access the subconscious then just the Psyche-K approach. I would recommend those interested to explore the field of Neurosemantics, NLP and Clinical hypnosis.
