William A. Tiller, Ph.D. is professor emeritus of Materials Science and Engineering at Stanford University. Tiller appears in the film What the Bleep Do We Know!?. His seminal book is the 1997 Science and Human Transformation, which postulates the existence of subtle energies, beyond the four fundamental forces, which act in concert with human consciousness.

[edit] Psychoenergetics and subtle energies

Tiller claims to have discovered a new class of natural phenomena generated via what he calls "subtle energies", which also manifest themselves in the practices of healers and other practitioners of the paranormal. ^[1] Tiller defines the term psychoenergetics as the study of these energies in relation to the application of human consciousness. He sees a connection between both physical and nonphysical consciousness and the natural phenomena. These findings are not presently accepted by the mainstream scientific community.

[edit] Tiller foundation

He is currently Chairman and Chief Scientist of the William A. Tiller Foundation, an organization devoted to his research on Psychoenergetic Science and Subtle Energies and is a retailer of his books and DVDs.
