I think the title of this thread is "science ebook recommendations", and not "pseudoscience ebook recommendations". Looks to be standard Deepak Chopra-style malarky that is based on a fundamental misunderstanding of quantum physics - that an "observer" has to be conscious, or even alive. Or maybe it's based on the all too astute observation about what people will buy when you affix the word "quantum" to it.

I love that the book description on Amazon has this gem: "Robert Lanza is one of the most respected scientists in the world". Strangely, it omits the fact that Lanza is a medical doctor, and not a physicist or evolutionary biologist.
