Description
Book SynopsisThis is a work of systematic parapsychology. The book aims to construct a framework and system of parapsychology, taking a comprehensive approach to the field. The Outline of Parapsychology states that parapsychology has a different philosophical background from the existing science and religions, and posits that pantheism could be the theoretical basis of parapsychology. The book also integrates parapsychology with oriental philosophies and New Age movement thought.
Trade ReviewAn impressive book that reflects the erudition and dedication of its author…It provides its readers with a philosophical as well as a historical perspective on the scientific attempt to understand reports of phenomena that appear to transcend mainstream science's understanding of time, space, and energy. In addition, it provides a masterful overview of serious research programs involving telepathy, clairvoyance, precognition, psychokinesis, and related topics. The Outline of Parapsychology demonstrates why this field of study is neither a superstition nor a pseudoscience, but a frontier science with profound implications for the understanding of Nature. -- Stanley Krippner Ph.D
