Intelligence Behind the Universe III: The Unification of Physics & Spirituality is a 2010 book by the engineer Ron Pearson, published through Lulu. It continues the series begun with his Intelligence Behind the Universe! (1990).

Overview

Pearson argues that intelligence and consciousness are fundamental features of the universe rather than by-products of the brain. Central to his account is an "intelligent ether" (which he calls the i-ther): he proposes that mind consists of organized regions of this ether, distinct from the matter of the body, so that consciousness survives bodily death and continues to interact with the universe. On this basis he offers physical explanations for psychic phenomena and for survival after death, framing the work as a unification of physics and spirituality.

About the author

Ronald D. Pearson is a British mechanical engineer and former lecturer in thermodynamics and fluid mechanics (and inventor of an early gas-wave turbine) who, after retiring, turned to physics and to theories of consciousness, cosmology, and survival after death.
