About this product
Product Information
Mainline science rejects the paranormal because it cannot be proven by the classical methods of controlled experiments. But sciences such as geology, astronomy, and anthropology also don't rely on laboratory testing for repeatable results. Moreover, psi concerns consciousness, which is by definition non-quantitative. Psi researchers must stop acting like science's poor relations, says author Lawrence LaShan, limiting themselves to controlled experiments such as analyzing statistics of people guessing cards being flipped in the next room This provocative book outlines the principles of making a real study of the large, exciting events -- clairvoyance and precognition; mediumship and spirit controls; psychic healing -- that would bring mainline science into and revitalize the whole field. And the issue is not just academic, says LeShan. The old, materialistic worldview has not worked. Psychic research, he argues, can transform our sense of reality itself to offer a new and more hopeful picture of ourselves and of the world.

Reviews
"Drawing on a lifetime's research into the further reaches of consciousness, Lawrence LeShan brilliantly draws the outlines of a wider science and a deeper worldview. Compulsory reading, especially for professional psychologists and philosophers." -- David Lorimer , program director, Scientific and Medical Network, A New Science of the Paranormalis a stirring manifesto. LeShan offers compelling evidence that consciousness transcends time and space, and why science must confront and ultimately adapt these discoveries. History will judge Lawrence LeShan as one of the great visionaries of consciousness, and this book shows why. -Larry Dossey, MD,author ofThe Power of PremonitionsandHealing Words Is there anything new one can say about psychical research and parapsychology? Yes, there is, and Lawrence LeShan has said it beautifully.A New Science of the Paranormalis LeShan's distillation of decades of research and contemplation; it reveals a brilliant mind at the peak of its intellectual prowess. -Stanley Krippner, PhD,Professor of Psychology, Saybrook Graduate School, co-editor,Varieties of Anomalous Experience: Assessing the Scientific Evidence, A New Science of the Paranormal is a stirring manifesto.

His compassion, curiosity, and vision have expanded our understanding of unity consciousness, psychic abilities, and the primary roles of love and intention in healing, showing that we are all, indeed, natural healers. Thank-you, Larry. -- Jane Katra, Ph.D., author of Miracles of Mind , and The Heart of the Mind, " A New Science of the Paranormal is a stirring manifesto.

" -- Larry Dossey, MD , author of The Power of Premonitions and Healing Words, "Is there anything new one can say about psychical research and parapsychology? Yes, there is, and Lawrence LeShan has said it beautifully. Some of his readers might not agree with his assessment of paranormal experiences. But I doubt that they will ever think about reality and rationality in quite the same way again.
