Quantum Processes linking Creation and Consciousness.A unique collection of interrelated essays, expounding in one place most of the STUNNING discoveries/devices in modern physics. Deep Reality.The book fulfils our need for connecting these mind-opening processes to CONSCIOUSNESS and some paranormal phenomena.Research suggestions are plentiful (tagged SFAR).Subjects include: aliens, astrophysics, biofeedback, biogravity, brain, condensates, consciousness, cosmology, Creation, DNA, energy, Event Horizons, Existence, galaxies, genetic memory, God, gravity waves, information, invisibility, LASERS, levitation, Mind, miracles, negative mass-energy, neurons, non-material worlds, paranormal, psychology, psychophysics, quantum biology, quantum coherence, quantum entanglement, quantum superpositions, quantum tunnelling, reality, relativity, soul, space, SQUID, thought, Uncertainty Principles, Vacuum, virtual energy, waves, Zero-Point processes.Other FASCINATING topics and researchers can be found in the comprehensive Index (useful for collation).I wrote the elusive book that I wanted to read.Some books carry much on gravity (see Recommended Reading in "Strange Entities"), but say nothing about IMPORTANT biogravity and consciousness-gravity "Combination Scenarios".Subjects such as Quantum Consciousness/Biology, Non-Material Worlds, etc., are fledgling fields which are surely key in the future of human minds (possibly our only saviours). "Pink Pages" explain the dangers in our "Quantum Future".Through the suggested research into how the non-material components (those parts that cannot be measured by MRI, EEG, etc.) of our minds interact with other non-physical entities and Zero-Point processes, we can understand better our special human Consciousness and become better people, in a better world containing sublimity.Even if machines such as MRI and EEG became almost infinitely accurate at describing the PHYSICAL attributes of our Consciousness (capital "C" to distinguish human from basic consciousness), they cannot display our FULL "Consciousness Experiences"(NON-MATERIAL entities). KC* (Key Concept on a page).In "Strange Entities", our human Consciousness is modelled as a macroscopic QUANTUM phenomenon: as such it is highly sensitive to the "Observer Effect", analogous to the way that simply OBSERVING tiny/microscopic quantum systems (eg. neutrons) dramatically changes that which is observed. Recent results agree with this model because the very ACT of switching on an EEG (to detect energy-related waves from our brain; an "Act of Observation"), has been proven experimentally to change/modify our thoughts/Consciousness greatly: analogously, observing a neutron (eg. by a photon) affects/alters the whole system.In this book "Observer Effect" is used instead of the conventional "Observer Problem"; there is no "problem": we are simply observing one quantum system with another which changes both systems.Recent Quantum Biology findings show that macromolecules like DNA are only explicable/stable because of QUANTUM Processes; this implies that life in our Universe is "waiting to happen"; so life is fantastically more abundant than we can imagine/estimate: EVERYONE should be aware of this discovery!This book includes a "Playlist" of the Uncertainty Principle (deserves a book to itself): lists feature in this book (eg. factors needed to FULLY explain Consciousness, little-known LASER uses, known forces/mysteries of Nature)."Combination Scenarios" suggest how we may combine different effects/devices in our Worlds; A "PAC" ("pea-ay-sea" or "Picture-A-Concept") attempts to illustrate each visualizable idea: relief from text.The Uncertainty Principle implies that "particles" cannot exist; all in our Universe is WAVES; this subject is explained clearly and fully: (HUP: "aitch-you-pea").Handy cross-references throughout.

About the Author: The author was born in Wirral, U.K. and worked at Shell Chemicals U.K. He graduated with B.Sc. Honours in special physics at the University of London King's College in 1975. His parents (to whom the book is dedicated) were married in the Church of England (St. Barnabas), where the author subsequently went to "Sunday School". The author's religious education continued at Wirral Grammar School: then studying quantum physics at London University tested to the limit his faith in God. However in recent years (eg. since 2009) there have been important discoveries in Quantum Biology (detailed in "Strange Entities"); as if by magic the author has rediscovered his faith in all matters spiritual/non-material; so this change of heart was also brought about by QUANTUM mechanisms: in the latter case by the interaction of quantum processes and bio-matter. Along with a need to put ALL of the amazing recent discoveries in MODERN physics in one volume, to which he could refer, the author realized that there are unexplored connections between Consciousness and processes such as Vacuum/Zero-Point fluctuations. In "Strange Entities" the necessary research for readers to carry out in these fields is tagged Subject For Active Research (SFAR). The book links the material worlds (with which we are familiar) with the non-material worlds which we find perplexing [eg. Creation of our mass-energies Universe, quantum processes in general, the "spark of life", basic/HUMAN consciousness, paranormal, Bose-Einstein Condensates (BECs): includes MACROSCOPIC quantum processes]. These non-physical entities were the "hard problems" for many centuries: we NOW see that the pre-existing quantum wave information worlds precede the material worlds. We can relax! We can now even measure/interact with (and manipulate) all of Reality itself (see the Casimir Effect, "Kleppner Effect", Quantum Corrals, Unruh Effect, etc.); in a sense this is the TRUE BEGINNING of human science; previously we were simply juggling atoms, molecules and bigger bits of physical reality; if the correct lab experiments are done by readers of "Strange Entities", then we shall soon find the interfaces between our human Consciousness and Vacuum/Zero-Point processes: eg. we should find "MACRO-analogs" of the "Kleppner Effect" for basic/our Consciousness. In the past we thought that anything "quantum" involved ONLY small entities such as atoms, but we now realize that quantum processes can exist on LARGE scales. Have fun!
