Summary
Biocentrism shocked the world with a radical rethinking of the nature of reality.
But that was just the beginning. In Beyond Biocentrism, acclaimed biologist Robert Lanza, one of TIME magazine's "100 Most Influential People in 2014", and leading astronomer Bob Berman take the listener on an intellectual thrill ride as they reexamine everything we thought we knew about life, death, the universe, and the nature of reality itself.
The first step is acknowledging that our existing model of reality is looking increasingly creaky in the face of recent scientific discoveries. Science tells us with some precision that the universe is 26.8 percent dark matter, 68.3 percent dark energy, and only 4.9 percent ordinary matter but must confess that it doesn't really know what dark matter is and knows even less about dark energy. Science is increasingly pointing toward an infinite universe but has no ability to explain what that really means. Concepts such as time, space, and even causality are increasingly being demonstrated as meaningless.
All of science is based on information passing through our consciousness, but science hasn't the foggiest idea what consciousness is, and it can't explain the linkage between subatomic states and observation by conscious observers. Science describes life as a random occurrence in a dead universe but has no real understanding of how life began or why the universe appears to be exquisitely designed for the emergence of life.
The biocentrism theory isn't a rejection of science. Quite the opposite. Biocentrism challenges us to fully accept the implications of the latest scientific findings in fields ranging from plant biology and cosmology to quantum entanglement and consciousness.
By listening to what the science is telling us, it becomes increasingly clear that life and consciousness are fundamental to any true understanding of the universe. This forces a fundamental rethinking of everything we thought we knew about life, death, and our place in the universe.

Some interesting concepts
It was OK. The woo-woo alarm was going off for most of it but there was definitely at least one aha! moment which made me think about the nature of reality. Hence three stars.

You are no one and everything, you are everywhere and no where, combines the ideas of consciousness and quantum physics, it’s probably not 100% accurate but if you want to know why read the book. I would definitely recommend

Connecting mind, body, universe and quantum mechanics
Fascinating insights in to the quantum world with its connections everyday consciousness and the world around us - however the narrator spoke as if it were a fictional suspense drama with his tone and inflections made it quite irritating words like ‘repulsive’ read out as a severe dislike as opposed to the magnetic field he was talking about - despite this narration the book was enjoyable

Life changing...
Would you listen to Beyond Biocentrism again? Why?
Will definitely listen to this again... So much information to take in.
What was one of the most memorable moments of Beyond Biocentrism?
Too many to mention...
What does Peter Ganim bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you had only read the book?
A good clear voice. He seemed to enjoy the book himself.
Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?
Too many to mention...
Any additional comments?
Very little grounding in physics needed to get yourself into this. Just let the ideas wash over you the first time and then listen to the book again more attentively.
This is a very important piece of work and I cannot recommend it highly enough.

good book with very interesting points
this book was extremely informative and is worth listening too , the subjects which it talks about have profound implications. I dropped one star because I found that the author didn't explain some of his statements.

we are all connected
If we all understand that the scientific theory for quantum theory and biological observations are one, the fact that nothing exists unless observed, your a long way in understanding biocentrism.
all of you and what you perceive is one in the same. our eyes are not windows on the world. it's our conscious thoughts that create everything we see and interact with.
everything is connected.

narrators voice
narrators voice is unpleasant to me. His faux vocal fry at the end of each sentence is un necessary and quite frankly irritating. The gutteral vibrations do not make the authors arguments any more convincing, rather his voice sounds smug and almost like the male version of the narrator from Desperate Housewives. What is happening to the American voice I wonder, this type of voice did not exist 20 or 30 years ago.
