Summary: Timely & Fascinating
Review: Fascinated by remote viewing, I started reading Lyn Buchanan's experiences as a military officer reading "our enemies'" minds. Well, it turned out to be quite an adventure. He describes how he got involved in remote viewing, his experiences in the army intelligence, and even how one can learn to be psychic. It is a skill everyone can learn and sharpen. On top of it, this book is very timely. Buchanan describes one of his most active projects, working on Desert Storm and Sadam Hussein. "Sadam is absolutely what I would call a totally crazy man", Buchanan says. Well, why instead of using billions of dollars and weaponry, let's use Buchanan's insights and find out how to resolve a possible war. A must-read for interested citizens, politicians and weapons inspectors, before it's too late!

Summary: Best Controlled Remote Viewing reading
Review: Fascinating stories about Lyn Buchanan's life experience with remote viewing. The style of writing makes you want to turn the pages to the end of the book without interruption. Informative as well as thought-provoking in an intelligent way. Raises spiritual questions. Refreshing and rivetting at the same time. Recommend for non-viewers, for those who are curious about the subject, and for those who have trained in crv.

Summary: The Real Deal
Review: For those unfamiliar with military remote viewing and its history, Lyn Buchanan is one of the most authoritative voices in the field. He enjoys almost universal respect among his peers in the RV community and is a founding member of the International Remote Viewing Association. Joe McMoneagle, Viewer 001 -- the most prolific writer in the field and also well-worth reading -- once recommended only two men as RV trainers for civilians, Lyn Buchanan and Paul Smith. This list has probably expanded since Skip Atwater recently joined the former-military teaching ranks after publishing his own book, but the fact of the matter remains, Buchanan is among a tiny cadre of the elite. The Seventh Sense adds another personal layer to the history of the military remote viewing unit under its various names, introducing you to a candid, deeply thoughtful and principled man. For those already familiar with remote viewing, a large appendix of practical tips and exercises is worth the price of the book alone, not to mention Buchanan's opinion of self-styled "Doctor Doom," euphemistically dubbed Ted. Highly recommended. I hope Buchanan publishes more soon. Meanwhile, the Frequently Asked Questions section of his website is another terrific resource for wanna-be's, and his IRVA videos are some of the best, as well.

Summary: Excellent Must Read
Review: I consider myself open-minded, sometimes gullibly so, but I just couldn't believe this book. Okay, maybe parts. Small parts. But there were just too many convenient ways to sidestep a curious reader's need for evidence. Being able to explain intriguing details of past events is very unconvincing in a world where the information flows at the speed of your modem and everyone has a modicum of imagination. Little red flags for me were the quotes beginning several chapters which were taken from Buchanan's own unpublished science fiction novel. This told me that he loves his own words (choosing them before all other literature), has an active imagination and the drive to write down his stories. He also makes enormous claims of his influence in the world which sound fairly humble but are reminiscent of Forrest Gump. (Which I laughed to find is also quoted in the book.) Buchanan claims to have planted the original thoughts in Gorbachev's mind that communism was not working in the USSR, he apparently made Saddam Hussein sick for two weeks (which he deduces from the fact there were no public appearance or orders given by him for 10 days), and he averted a world war. Wow. If I never review another book, you'll know that Buchanan got me and you may disregard my opinion. I must say though, that I would like to read his science fiction novel. Some of those quotes were cute. Really.

Summary: What a Crock
Review: Lyn Buchanan was a "psychic spy" for the US Government in a program called "Star Gate". The government blew 20M dollars on these New Age b.s. artists with such great results that eventually the program was shut down. Buchanan attacks the magician and debunker, James Randi, but offers no hard proof that CVR works. It's absolute garbage.

Summary: A Good Read
Review: Lyn is not only a great remote viewer, but also now a fine author. This is a must read for anyone interested in remote viewing.

Summary: Random pickup at the library
Review: Run through the library and pick up a random book from a section you are at all even remotely interested in. You might choose this book - I did.
Lyn shares his experiences with the military and with CRV. Most parts of this book were fun to read. CRV is presented in a romantic light and I can see people being turned on to mental powers by the stories. My favorite was Buchanan putting his head into a particle beam weapon ray. How exciting!
