Synopsis
Reviews of earlier editions: "Excellent...comprehensive...well written...high quality...recommended for public, college and university libraries" - Choice; "highly recommended...give[s] an intelligent overview...clear...organization is excellent" - The Journal of Parapsychology; "fills the gap because it is up to date, formally written, and wide in scope...a particularly useful resource for students and teachers alike...as a textbook, Irwin's book is the best of its kind" - Journal of the American Society for Psychical Research; "an invaluable source book for students and would-be students of parapsychology...highly recommended" - The College of Psychic Studies. This is a thoroughly updated and revised edition of our highly acclaimed university textbook on the science of parapsychology. The objective of this book is to provide an introductory survey of parapsychologists' efforts to explore the authenticity and bases of anomalous, apparently paranormal phenomena. Dr. Irwin outlines the origins of parapsychological research and critically reviews investigations of extrasensory perception, psychokinesis, poltergeist phenomena, near-death and out-of-body experiences, and the evaluation of parapsychology as a scientific enterprise.
