Summary
Quantum physics is an astounding (and mind-boggling) field of science, but can you actually use it to change your life? Absolutely yes, says Dr. Quantum. On A User's Guide to Your Universe, Dr. Quantum, who goes by day as mild-mannered physicist Dr. Fred Alan Wolf, teaches that anyone can understand quantum physics. What's more, it is the most useful, immediate, and relevant kind of science you can learn to profoundly affect your day-to-day life.
Your Mind is a Quantum Engine. Are You Ready to Fire It Up?
The art of "applied quantum physics" is learning how to harness the power of consciousness as we move through space and time. At the heart of quantum theory lies an astonishing (and scientifically proven) truth: that the very act of observing events in your life can alter their outcome. Our minds may not be just along for the ride in an impersonal universe, suggests Dr. Wolf. Instead, we can define the fabric of reality at a fundamental level with the choices we make, the things we choose to see or not see, and most importantly, our intentions in each moment.
Prepare to Unlock Your Own Quantum Superpowers.
How does the energy of your emotions change the physical state of your body? Can we actually perceive parallel universes? Is time travel possible for you at this very moment? Dr. Wolf takes you outside the walls of the laboratory, through the pages of history, and into the land of dreams, alchemy, and enchantment. With him, you will follow in the footsteps of such physics giants as Planck, Heisenberg, and Einstein, as you learn to reframe your perceptions of "ordinary" reality. Ultimately, you will learn to use the "Technology of God", harnessing the power of your mind to become an active co-creator of the universe.

Odd, but just had to listen to it all
The first half dozen chapters or so seemed to relate to what I had imagined as Quantum Physics. This totally theoretical field of physics requires an open mind. It does seem to go a little "strange" later on when the author starts advocating shamanism ("witch doctors" and that sort of thing) but when you consider what he's talking about this is probably the only example he could use to demonstrate the "reality" of how quantum physics has been used, as it does all seem shrouded in mystery.
Nevertheless, I did feel inclined to keep listening just to see where he was going with it. A few bits made me laugh out loud, although I'm not sure they were supposed to!
Probably not one I'll recommend to my scientifically minded friends though- you need an open mind to entertain the thought of "there's possibly something beyond the physical world" to really appreciate this book, although I'm not talking about religion.

Absolutely terrible!!
Not only is the content complete nonsense but 'Dr Quantum' must rate as one of the most annoying people I have ever had to listen to. Avoid this podcast at all costs.

Cringe
I agree with other reviewers in their dislike of the narrator's voice. A lot of it sounds like he is making it up on the spot but losing his train of thought. He was enthusiastic about his subject but it soon begins to grate.
As for the subject matter, the description is accurate. But make sure you have read the description to the end, not just the first paragraph as I did! Getting to the conclusions Dr. Wolf makes involves much that is subjective analysis of personal situations. For example, drawing conclusions about any aspect of science while contemplating your jungle drug experience on the plane home does not seem a sound scientific foundation.
Mind you if you have read the description to the end and are still considering dowloading this audiobook, sound science is obviously not what you are looking for.
(If you do want good science get 'Briefer History of Time' or 'A Short History of Nearly Everything')
