Grounded in both scientific acumen and constructive enquiry, this anthology shines a rare, clarifying light on the controversial realms of psychical and paranormal research, surveying reports, essays and arguments from more than a century of investigation into matters such as clairvoyance, telepathy and past-life regression.
In the past one hundred and twenty-five years - despite a relative paucity of funding and the troubling persistence of fraud - serious enquiry into the paranormal, particularly as it relates to clairvoyance and psychical perception, has successfully entered the scientific age.
Studies in the modern laboratory, employing rigorous methodology and peer-reviewed oversight, have conclusively detected statistical anomalies that suggest the presence of some not yet understood faculty of the human mind. In THE PARAPSYCHOLOGY REVOLUTION, Robert M. Schoch - a scholar widely known for his geological theories that question the conventional dating of the Great Sphinx - and researcher Logan Yonavjak introduce and anthologise core writings that underscore the range and continuing challenges of psychical research.
The book's extensive introduction and the editors' commentary on individual essays and sections highlight milestones, feuds and key players that mark the nascent history of this fascinating and important field of research. Finally, THE PARASPYCHOLOGY REVOLUTION addresses and clarifies the all-important question: is there legitimate evidence for a world beyond the ordinary?
