In such a model, real time would be the unattainable border of this infinite series. They were merely displaced in Time. It is also very much a book of its period, a febrile time of war, spiritualism, the 20th century scientific revolution and the exploration of the human mind. What was most upsetting about his dreams was that they contradicted the accepted model of time as a series of events flowing only one way: First part was good, second half is out of date due to lack of development in Quantum Mechanics in his day.
All of this prompted Dunne to think about time in an entirely new way. Aug 20, Tim Pendry rated it liked it Shelves: The field in question is, of course, our original field, and the observer thereof is our original, conscious observer.

The book has remained in print more or less ever since and its attraction to every new generation never seems to dull. This is a statement that Dunne does not even try to prove at any point of his otherwise rather meticulous analysis. The writer is at pains to be clear and he does a good job of this but you have to be of a mathematical or analytical bent to get anything out of this book and I am afraid that I am not.
He seems to have been a highly intelligent man and he uses his sharp intellect to explore the many strange possibilities of the nature of Time in relation to dreams.
Sep 11, Luis Damian Robles rated it liked it Shelves: Sep 17, David rated it liked it. A thing that happened, as mediated mentally, happening mentally again? First published in ; Dunne started writing down his dreams and began to notice that some of them fit later waking life so exactly he couldn’t write it off to coincidence, and he developed a whole theory “that in reality all Time is eternally present ie that past, present and future are all happening at the same time.
He explained and defended the theory in three volumes that provoked a clamor of polemic.
I cannot evaluate this in the slightest but the work – from someone who has an engineers’ determination that his analysis should be logical – does have the virtue of ensuring that this ignorant reader is not automatically dismissive of any thesis that does not accord with obvious sensory impressions of the material world.
His study of dreams and precognition, the first part of the book, set the gold standard for others to follow and stands up well even today. He assures us that upon our death we shall be handed the happy reins of eternity. Jul 08, Joey rated it really liked it. As for the experience of precognition itself as opposed to the theorythe material is persuasive without allowing a fixed view. Throughout his life Dunne experienced prophetic visions and dreams, often accompanied by insistent voices.
A series of strange, troubling precognitive dreams including a vision of the then fu J. Given the burden of empirical proof, the scientific validity of the book will always be called into question.
I’ve been borrowing this book from the library for many many years. Jul 17, Candy Wood added it. Return to Book Page.
Plus human memory is malleable–perhaps after an experience, he re-remembers common elements from the dream, but doesn’t notice the differences. He has no recourse but to assume that time has dimensions like space because humanity has rather limited tools of perception for the purpose of such a study. Perhaps we selectively remember the times when we’re right though he describes experiments where this can be accounted for.
It is not merely for show; it ignites our interest in the text and sure enough the text does not disappoint. Jul 28, Aagave rated it liked it. I don’t know why he doesn’t consider more of a parallel treatment of time–isn’t memory a mental reoccurrence of a past event? This confusion over date is apposite since the book is essentially a scientific and philosophical and the author would like to think psychological treatise on time in the context of his and others’ experience of precognition in dreams.
Astonishingly, Dunne’s proposed model of time accounts for many of life’s mysteries: Feb 08, James M. Borges later wrote an essay incorporating elements of the preface called “Time and J. His ideas, and the questions they raise, remain for the most part as fresh as ever, as do the criticisms raised against him.
Un experimento con el tiempo
What a fascinating book, one that is now mostly forgotten but that inspired a generation of early- and mid-twentieth-century writers, including Flann O’Brien, J. The mathematics of dreams, time and eternity. He left out the visions and voices as he felt, quite rightly, that they would put off the average sceptical scientist These were described in his later book, “Intrusions? Well, if Dunne is correct, this data should in theory include shards of future memories and therefore prove that time is of a different nature than most of us believe.
And it now appears that, apart from its self-sustaining and self-developing activities, the brain serves as a machine for teaching the embryonic soul to think. Author theorizes how he is able to have uncannily prescient moments in dreams.
Un experimento con el tiempo : J. W. Dunne :
And the odd thing was that there did not seem to be any such barrier at all. What if you von something, and then in a few days or a week—or sometimes even much farther along in the future, perhaps even years—you recognized those elements of your dream in a real life experience? Absolutely loved this book, gives a brand new perspective on dreams and reality.
The evidence is strong, the tale enticing, the motifs perhaps ironically timeless. To give an example, here is Dunne: Thea Gency rated it it was amazing Nov 03, If you get lost, take it easy, as long as you are following the general theme, you will be fine.
That’s the basic premise.
