From the publisher's website: Courageous scientists challenge the dominant paradigm of reality. Why are they so brave and what does their research reveal? What is reality? Is there more than we know from our five senses? Vanguard scientists believe there is more than we see so they formulate a non-materialist paradigm that expands human potential, to include mind and matter interaction. Since going against the dominant worldview provokes opposition, this book explores the personal backgrounds of the scientists to find out why they are so courageous. We learn that there is another dimension that allows for enhanced abilities. Based on interviews conducted by Gayle Kimball, The Mysteries of Reality: Dialogues with Visionary Scientists reports on the current research and personal characteristics of visionaries from around the world.

From the publisher's website: This book consists of a collection of essays informing readers as to the contemporary status of selected cutting-edge issues in parapsychology (or “psi research”). Each chapter comprehensively reviews a controversial topic from a critical stance, and updates its status based on the latest theoretical and empirical considerations. Chapter authors are authoritative experts in their fields who have captured the complexity and importance of their topics. This is a resource for both the serious scholar and interested follower of psi research, containing in-depth analyses and discussions of topics that cannot be found elsewhere. Topics include cross-examinations of psychical investigations; a meta-analysis of anomalous information collected by mediums; an examination of the relationships between parapsychology, quantum theory and neuroscience; and a study of psychics’ involvement in police investigations.

Investigations in regression.To past lives, investigating the facts behind the stories.To early life where the hidden causes of many people’s anxiety problems lie and by discovering them the problem can be removed.Jim Alexander became an expert in this field because he wanted to understand the phenomena and see if there is something more meaningful than our fragile physical existence.There are aspects of every case that are revealing and thought provoking. The first six (in Part One and Part Three) illustrate key parts of the past life memories phenomenon but the final two are particularly relevant.The Jenny Cockell case is very well known but this is the only time that detailed research has been conducted to assess its validity – and the research was carried out by the hypnotist involved.The final case presents very powerful evidence in support of reincarnation.Part Two makes the case for vastly increased use of Hypnotic Regression in the treatment of mental anxiety. Not the occasional worries or doubts we all have but the irrational fears and habits or beliefs that a significant number of people suffer from but where the help that is possible is ignored by most of the medical profession, who favour the use of drugs that merely suppress or the therapies that take years and rarely work. Taking this approach will save the NHS millions of pounds and help thousands of people enjoy a normal life without wasting years being let down by poor advice.The information in this book needs to be spread widely.

Poltergeist - The Night Side of Physics is a close-up theoretical and scientific analysis of the activity that took place in the Bothell house. Spontaneous fires, stone-throwing, teleportation, apport, asporting, strange water puddle appearances, objects levitating, strange sounds - it's all here. How is the poltergeist able to perform these machinations? What's the mechanics behind it? Short answer. Not telekinesis. The Night Side of Physics is the first book ever to look at poltergeist activity through a quantum physics lens and, in doing so, come up with some startling revelations. New theories. The first paranormal book of its kind to combine known physics with the phenomenon known as poltergeist activity. Keith Linder has brought some new questions and new answers to the field. Let the conversation begin.

From the publisher's website: Parapsychological research has produced significant findings over the last few decades, and science has the obligation to continue exploring this area, seeking to contribute to the spiritual enlightenment of humanity. This book examines evidence of traditional psychic phenomena, promoting a more comprehensive understanding of them, and offering new perspective to see ourselves as particles of “universal energy,” interconnected with all others.
