U of O Neuroscientist Considers "Infinite Awareness"

Rowman & Littlefield

Dr. Marjorie Woollacott at the University of Oregon knows at thing or two about the human brain. 

You know... nerve tissue, chemicals, electricity. 

But once she started meditating, her own conception of human consciousness changed in a big way. 

The collision of neuroscientist and meditator produced a book, Infinite Awareness: The Awakening of a Scientific Mind.

Dr. Woollacott travels to the studio to talk about her work and how it's changed over the years.
