Free University of Berlin researcher Bernhard Harrer discusses acute flaws in the experimental and theoretical aspects of Dr. Reich's life energy theory.
Birthday and 40th anniversary of the death of the psychotherapist, Dr. Wilhelm Reich. His „Orgone Theory“, a concept for life energy, today is still used by some psychotherapists and in certain medical circles, and has received great resonance among patients (Orgone Energy According to Wilhelm Reich - And what has happened with it). Reich published many concrete experiments in order to find physical measurments and proof for life energy. His Orgone Energy Field Meter is presented and analyzed
