This 2002 hardback reprint 'Beyond the Occult' is written by an author with a great deal of experience and insight into the field of the paranormal. Colin Wilson has been exploring the field of the paranormal ever since he began the research for his first highly successful book on the subject, 'The Occult', published in 1970. Approaching these phenomena with the training and the attitudes of a scientist rather than a committed occultist, he eventually became convinced that the evidence for what we call the paranormal is at least as powerful as the evidence for the existence of atomic particles. Now, after twenty years of further research, he sets out to show in 'Beyond the Occult' that the 'world picture' of the modern occultist is as consistent and comprehensive as that of the scientist. He begins with the human mind, and with vivid examples of its unseen powers: ESP, precognition, clairvoyance, psychokinesis, psychometry, dowsing, out-of-the-body experiences, mystical experiences of all kinds. From there he moves on to the profoundly mysterious phenomena - poltergeists, spirit possession, reincarnation - that have convinced him of the reality of the disembodied spirits. Hundreds of fascinating glimpses into the universe of the paranormal are linked with the latest scientific thinking about the uncertain nature of ultimate 'physical' reality to support Colin Wilson's powerful case: that out so-called 'normal' experience may in fact be sub-normal, and that evolution may have brought us near to the edge of a quantum leap into a hugely expanded consciousness. Chapters: PART ONE: HIDDEN POWERS. 1. Mediums and mystics; 2. The Other Self; 3. Down the Rabbit Hole; 4. The Information Universe; 5. Intrusions? 6. Memories of the Future; 7. Minds without bodies? PART TWO: POWERS OF GOOD AND EVIL: 1. The Search for Evidence; 2. The Truth About Magic; 3. The World of Spirits; 4. Visions; 5. Completing the Picture; 6. Towards the Unknown Region; Bibliography; Index
