About this listen
My Big TOE: Awakening, written by a nuclear physicist in the language of contemporary culture, unifies science and philosophy, physics and metaphysics, mind and matter, purpose and meaning, the normal and the paranormal. The entirety of human experience (mind, body, and spirit) including both our objective and subjective worlds is brought together under one seamless scientific understanding.
Section 1 provides a partial biography of the author that is pertinent to the subsequent creation of this trilogy. This brief look at the author's unique experience and credentials sheds some light upon the origins of this highly unusual work.
Section 2 lays out and defines the basic conceptual building blocks needed to construct My Big TOE's conceptual foundation. It discusses the cultural beliefs that trap our thinking into a narrow and limited conceptualization of reality, defines the basics of Big Picture epistemology and ontology; logically infers the nature of time, space, and consciousness as well as describes the basic properties, purpose, and mechanics of our reality. Many of the concepts initiated in Section 2 are more fully explained in Book 2.

In this grand poetic vision of the universe, Lawrence Krauss tells the dramatic story of the discovery of the hidden world that underlies reality - and our place within it. Reality is not what you think or sense - it’s weird, wild, and counterintuitive, and its inner workings seem at least as implausible as the idea that something can come from nothing. With his trademark wit and accessible style, Krauss leads us to realms so small that they are invisible to microscopes, to the birth and rebirth of light, and into the natural forces that govern our existence.

Can there be freedom and free will in a deterministic world? Renowned philosopher Daniel Dennett emphatically answers "yes!" Using an array of provocative formulations, Dennett sets out to show how we alone among the animals have evolved minds that give us free will and morality. Weaving a richly detailed narrative, Dennett explains in a series of strikingly original arguments - drawing upon evolutionary biology, cognitive neuroscience, economics, and philosophy - that far from being an enemy of traditional explorations of freedom, morality, and meaning, the evolutionary perspective can be an indispensable ally.

A single purpose lies at the heart of all the great religious traditions: awakening to the astonishing reality of the true nature of ourselves and the universe. At the same time, through centuries of cultural accretion and focus on myth and ritual as ends in themselves, this core insight has become obscured. Here Ken Wilber provides a path for reenvisioning a religion of the future that acknowledges the evolution of humanity in every realm while remaining faithful to that original spiritual vision.

We're used to thinking about the self as an independent entity, something that we either have or are. In The Ego Tunnel, philosopher Thomas Metzinger claims otherwise: No such thing as a self exists. The conscious self is the content of a model created by our brain - an internal image, but one we cannot experience as an image. Everything we experience is "a virtual self in a virtual reality." But if the self is not "real," why and how did it evolve? How does the brain construct it?

Between 1993 and 2000, a series of groundbreaking experiments revealed dramatic evidence of a web of energy that connects everything in our lives and our world - the Divine Matrix. From the healing of our bodies, to the success of our careers, relationships, and the peace between nations, this new evidence demonstrates that we each hold the power to speak directly to the force that links all of creation.

How would you like to experience your life? It's an intriguing question, and yet we've been conditioned to believe our life visions and goals are often unattainable - until now. With The Possibility Principle, psychotherapist Mel Schwartz offers a revolutionary approach to living the life we choose. Though science has vastly expanded our knowledge, it has also led us to adopt a worldview where we see ourselves as insignificant specks living in a mechanical universe.

Seventy years ago, Erwin Schrdinger posed a simple, yet profound, question: What is life?. How could the very existence of such extraordinary chemical systems be understood? This problem has puzzled biologists and physical scientists both before, and ever since. Living things are hugely complex and have unique properties, such as self-maintenance and apparently purposeful behaviour which we do not see in inert matter. So how does chemistry give rise to biology?

Our thought lives have incredible power over our mental, emotional, and even physical well-being. In fact, our thoughts can either limit us to what we believe we can do or release us to experience abilities well beyond our expectations. When we choose a mindset that extends our abilities rather than placing limits on ourselves, we will experience greater intellectual satisfaction, emotional control, and physical health. The only question is... how?

Nearly everyone is familiar with holograms - three-dimensional images projected into space with the aid of a laser. Two of the world's most eminent thinkers believe that the universe itself may be a giant hologram, quite literally a kind of image or construct created, at least in part, by the human mind. University of London physicist David Bohm, one of the world's most respected quantum physicists, and Stanford neurophysiologist Karl Pribram, an architect of our modern understanding of the brain, have developed a remarkable new way of looking at the universe.

The case is made that gravity is a necessary condition for a causal universe.

Very disappointing
Would you say that listening to this book was time well-spent? Why or why not?
Unfortunately I can’t say that my time listening was well spent. The topic is interesting and I absolutely acknowledge that Thomas Campbell is an authority in this field with a great amount of wisdom to share. But this book, and likely the other two, are literally a lesson in why physicists should write scholarly articles and not books. Mr. Campbell actually states at some point in the first 6 chapters that he will provide multiple explanations of the same material in each section of the book with the intention that all people will at least be able to grasp the information in one explanation or another. I commend Mr. Campbell for having that idea, however in practice it results in what can only be described as verbal diarrhea. It just got to the point where I completely lost interest because it dragged on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on...you get the point. It was relatively easy to understand the material it was just really difficult to stay interested. Very disappointing.
Do you think My Big TOE: Awakening needs a follow-up book? Why or why not?
It has two; and I will not be reading/listening to them.

My Big TOE: Snoozing
Even though the book has plenty of interesting ideas, none of them are particularly new and none are presented very well.
If you are familiar with the basic concepts of Hinduism, Buddhism, Quantum Mechanics, Information Theory, Cognitive Neuroscience, The Monroe institute and AI, then you will find no new concepts to deal with. On the other hand, if these topics are foreign to you, they will usually be presented without reference to their original sources. Nonetheless, they can expand your awareness of the existence of these concepts and might stimulate further study.
Unfortunately the book is not written for the well informed reader and tends to ramble and becomes very repetitive. The author keeps promising that this rambling wreck is all going to make sense at some point but by the end of book two, I no longer believed the author's promise.
Despite his excessive wordiness the author often fails to clearly define his terms. For example, he uses the word entropy a lot without ever giving a clear definition of entropy and never mentioning the concept's connection to Shannon's Information Theory and nonequilibrium physics. He does mention the 2nd Law of Thermodynamics but not in a way that makes it clear as to what entropy means to him. The author does define his use of the term consciousness as fundamental awareness, which to him also extends to silicon based computers.
The author also has a penchant for creating acronyms that really don't help make the work more concise nor do they clarify the subjects being addressed. I had to stop the book several times and search for an acronym's meaning in order to understand his point.
For anyone just beginning to realize that REALITY is a concept and not actually what it appears to be, this book might be helpful. However, if you have already gone down the rabbit hole, this book might strike you as tedious.

The Theory of Everything ~ A Must Read
This is Body, Mind, Soul from a scientific angle. Deep but not too deep if you have a desire to learn the rest of the story of life. I love this guy and all those that have this desire to open the minds of humanity to the concept there is more to life than what your government tells you to think. Oops, that may have come out negative. This book teaches you how to choose not to focus on the negative and learn that anything is possible.

Prodigious Profundity.
So this book is crazy dense, and focus demanding. It’s also comical and easily digestible. Written for intellects, and peons alike. I tried skimming from the beginning a few years back and realized I didn’t have the proper focus. But finally found the right timing in my life.
I’ve been slowly chipping away at it on audiobook as I put my twin sons down for their daily nap. Listening and re listening to every little section until I’ve adequately understood each concept.
I actually flipped to around chapter 25 to get into the meat and potatoes before going back to the beginning. It was helpful for me to dive in that way. There’s a slow waiting line to get to the goods, so if you must, just find a section that grabs you, and pulls you in. Then once you’re on the rollercoaster just enjoy the ride.
It has come at a time where my vast potential but dim consciousness were in need of a major organizational overhaul in my physical, digital, and mental life in order to maximize my productivity and reduce my chaotic entropy. This is merely a fractal replication of the greater patterns of evolution that AUO (absolute unbounded oneness) and all other subsets of consciousness, in all nested dimensions, naturally go thru. (or reach their demise, i.e. increase entropy) so literally as I’ve been listening to and absorbing this knowledge it’s simultaneously actualizing in my very physical matter reality. ( these concepts will be better understood to you once you’ve begun reading this book ) if at first it doesn’t click, don’t fret. I believe this knowledge must come with the proper timing. So just hold onto it and try again anytime it calls. If you’ve found this book then you’re on the right track.

Listening tips for the earnest or begining learner
A similar review was left on Amazon’s site for the 3 in 1 volume of My Big Toe, the volume Tom reads from in this Audiobook series.
I’ll skip the praise, there’s enough of those reviews, and the criticism as I have none, and leave a tip for anyone taking this work on with an earnest mindset who may be intimidated or easily discouraged.
If you want to get the most out of this Audiobook, then do yourself a favor and purchase the 3 in 1 volume Tom reads from and read along with him as he reads from this volume only – not the individual part 1, 2 and 3 volumes. In listening to him as you read along there is no way you can mistake the point he’s making or misinterpret his humor. His inflections are unmistakable. Another tip is to get a High-Lighter and some Post-It-Notes, then High-Light and flag the text you want or need to. Make the 3 in 1 volume your personal reference and study guide.
In the Audiobook introduction the presenter informs the listener that he or she may find the material a challenging digest and suggests the listener uses the pause button to think about a given concept in a particular sentence and use the rewind button to hear the concept again before proceeding in order to understand the succeeding concept. That is a consumer specific tip as some who are familiar with Tom Campbell’s work on YouTube, or have digested a fair amount of like information from the hard material no “woo” physicists like Lawrence Krauss and Max Tegmark et al (he does not mention by name anyone who may have dismissed him as “woo” – these two are just an example of the main-stream academic material physicists who’ve put the “hard problem” (Which is: How does something as immaterial as consciousness arise from the material?) - into another dimension with no conclusive solution, - and have familiarity with those degreed professionals with open minds who’ve been dismissed from by the mainstream physicists as woo, such as: Bruce Lipton, Rupert Sheldrake, Nassim Haramein et al – then you may not need to pause or rewind – but with High-Lighter and page flags on hand you may be able to breeze along.
The only omission from the Audiobook, an obvious editorial oversight, starts in Book 2, Section 4, Chapter 56 on page 525 from the end of the “Aside” (see photo where marked) and all pages up to and including page 530. The Audiobook picks the text back up at the beginning of Book 2, Section 4, Chapter 57 on page 531 and is complete to the end to the end on page 820. It’s a magnificent performance on top of a masterpiece.

Enthralling
Great exploration of reality and consciousness. Was thought provoking, written and read very accessibly and entertainingly.

challenging
It's hard for a layman such as myself to fairly critique the work of it physicist, so I will be brief. I found this book difficult to get through. If not for Campbell's humour & pleasant voice (and thank. Ah-Om for the audio format) I might not have. That said, I am eager for book 2, and I hope it has a payoff in terms of actually examining Tom's Big Toe. An entire book just validating our readiness to perceive it seems indulgent.
