Summary: Paradox of Parallel Universes
Comment: This is a difficult subject to comprehend and the author does not help the reader to make it any easier: He not only confuses the reader but also makes it boring by repetition, innumerable references to; fiction, TV shows and other literature that is not directly related to physics. Although the book is free of physics and mathematics, the author could have spent few chapters to concentrate on the physics of parallel universes in layman's language to make the reader understand the physical principles on which physicists want us to believe in parallel universes. The book is described in six parts related to quantum physics, relativity, cosmology, time and parallel universe, understanding of our universe (with parallel universes) and psychology. The idea of parallel universe was first conceived by Hugh Everett III in 1957; his accounting of the famous double-slit experiment and wave particle duality is that since wave is not real but it is probability wave or quantum wave function that may be associated with two particles (in two universes) and not one particle (in one universe).
The author could have hammered on topics such as Heisenberg's Uncertainty Principle (UP), the Observer Effect (Schrödinger's Cat, Wigner's Friend, EPR Paradox) on split and collapse of quantum wave function, antimatter, blackholes (Einstein-Rosen Bridge), invisibility of time, and better explanation of quantum mechanics and theory of relativity (both support the existence of parallel universes) in few short chapters and stay focused on the topic without wandering to fiction or other narratives. This would have helped a reader in understanding the concepts better. It is clear from this observation that the reader is not deprived of anything if he/she chooses not to own this book.

Summary: The Reality of Parallel Universes
Comment: Did you ever wonder HOW you receive warnings about events in the "future" that turn around and actually happen? Did you ever receive information in your dreams where the answers to a problem you were trying to figure out are given to you in complete detail? Such is the reality of parallel lives, and parallel universes.
We do not inhabit the ONLY Universe in our cosmos. Fred Alan Wolfe brings great insight into parallel universes, and parallel lives, spacetime, black holes, and, clashing waves of time, as well as the parallel "you" that does communicate with you in the life you live here and now.
All is simultaneous in the universal realm, where it is always "now." This book will bring you much insight, answers, and can help you ask questions so you can gain a greater understanding of your life that currently exists in another dimension while simultaneously existing in this one on Earth.
Highly recommended to gain greater wisdom.

Summary: Can you say "D-U-M-B-E-D D-O-W-N"?
Comment: I'm not surprised people are complaining there are no illustrations here. Perhaps it should come with pictures you can color in yourself and a complementary box of crayons. If we assume, however, for the sake of argument, that this is intended as a children's book, it is nevertheless a very poor children's book. (Very many authors, among them Lewis Carroll, E. B. White, and C. S. Lewis, have shown that it is possible to write for children and still write supremely well.)
