Lynne McTaggart

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Lynne McTaggart (born 1951) is a journalist and author, most famous for her popular books The Field and The Intention Experiment.

She and her publisher/husband Bryan Hubbard are directors of a public company called "What Doctors Don't Tell You Ltd.", which publishes newsletters that critique mainstream medicine.

As well as continuing to write about alternative medicine and editing the "What Doctors Don't Tell You" publications, McTaggart has also developed a program called "Living The Field", based on an understanding of the zero point field as applied in quantum mechanics. McTaggart's program is not accepted by mainstream medicine and not supported by scientific evidence, although references to mainstream scientific concepts are made. Despite references to quantum mechanics, McTaggart is not a physicist and her ideas are not supported by mainstream physicists.

She is head of the Intention Experiment, a large scale web-based investigation to discover whether intentions can affect the physical world. She also appears in the extended version of the movie What the Bleep Do We Know!?.

Ms. McTaggart instigated a plagiarism lawsuit against Doris Goodwin when McTaggart discovered that Goodwin had appropriated her work from the Kathleen Kennedy biography. Goodwin settled with McTaggart out of court.^{[citation needed]}

Lynne and her husband Bryan live and work in Wimbledon, England, with their two daughters.
