The Secret Nature of Matter

by Richard Gordon

Richard Gordon maps out new territory in the rarely explored intersection of science and spirituality in this fascinating investigation of the profound relationship between matter and consciousness. Building on the Quantum-Touch technique he developed in previous books, Gordon explains how the hands-on energy healing technique that he uses to help to alleviate nerve pain, headaches, back pain, hip pain, TMJ, and more provides a unique window onto the secret nature of matter. He explains how, by examining pelvic and occipital torsion, and then aligning people without the use of touch or suggestion, he is able to run a wide range of simple experiments that challenge many dogmas of science. This book teaches readers the technique along with 57 easy-to-reproduce experiments that allow them to test the results. These experiments clearly demonstrate that our consciousness can profoundly influence matter, and that an object charged with energy and intent can dramatically affect us physiologically in seconds.

About the author

Richard Gordon is the pen name used by Gordon Ostlere (born Gordon Stanley Ostlere on September 15, 1921), an English surgeon and anaesthetist. As Richard Gordon, Ostlere has written several novels, screenplays for film and television and accounts of popular history, mostly dealing with the practice of medicine. He is most famous for a long series of comic novels on a medical theme starting with Doctor in the House, and the subsequent film, television and stage adaptations. His The Alarming History of Medicine was published in 1993, and he followed this with The Alarming History of Sex.

Gordon worked as anaesthetist at St. Bartholomew's Hospital (where he was a medical student) and later as a ship's surgeon and as assistant editor of the British Medical Journal. He has published several technical books under his own name including Anaesthetics for Medical Students(1949); later published as Ostlere and Bryce-Smith's Anaesthetics for Medical Students in 1989, Anaesthetics and the Patient (1949) and Trichlorethylene Anaesthesia (1953). In 1952, he left medical practice and took up writing full time. He has an uncredited role as an anesthesiologist in the movie Doctor in the House.

The early Doctor novels, set in the fictitious St Swithin's, a teaching hospital in London, were initially witty and apparently autobiographical; later books included more sexual innuendo and farce. The novels were very successful in Britain in Penguin paperback during the 1960s and 1970s. Richard Gordon also contributed to Punch magazine and has published books on medicine, gardening, fishing and cricket.

The film adaptation of Doctor in the House was released in 1954, two years after the book, while Doctor at Sea came out the following year with Brigitte Bardot. Dirk Bogarde starred as Dr. Simon Sparrow in both. The later spin-off TV series were often written by other well-known British comic performers.

Wat een een slecht boek. Eerdere boeken erg interessant gebleken dus nieuw uitgekomen boek gekocht. Alleen maar bewijslast dat het werkt en dat een heel boek lang. Waardeloos

[Lauralee · Rating 5 out of 5]

You can feel the enthusiasm and excitement in the words of this author, which always leads me to give his work five stars. This was insightful, motivating, and interesting. A vast amount of research, theories, and opinions in the earlier stages of the novel. Around 60%, the methods were introduced with intent and charging objects to carry out said intentions, making it interesting and interactive. The topic mainly touched on for experimentation is SPA, which is Spontaneous Postural Alignment, focusing on the back of the head and the pelvis. Remarkable work and results shared throughout the novel, also, the Q&A is always a pleasure to read, as the most common theories or concerns were addressed. What is the purpose of this novel? To allow readers to understand that there is much more than what meets the eye of what matter is, experimenting with consciousness and matter, and evolving through this knowledge.

Honestly I was disappointed. I am very interested in learning more about energy, consciousness, and spirituality, but I did not find this book to be helpful. I found it to be very repetitive and fairly whiny. The author has some great ideas and theories, but I didn't feel this book did a good job supporting them.
