{"product_id":"parapsychology-a-handbook-for-the-21st-century","title":"Parapsychology: A Handbook for the 21st Century","description":"Many people have experienced such unusual phenomena as dreams that later seem to correspond with unforeseeable events, thinking of a long-lost friend just before he or she unexpectedly calls, or the ability to \"feel\" the presence of deceased loved ones. What many do not realize is that these types of experiences have been researched for more than a century by eminent scientists, including Nobel laureates. Most of these researchers have concluded that some of these phenomena do occur, although we are far from explaining them to everyone's satisfaction.\nThis book is the first in almost 40 years to provide a comprehensive scientific overview of research in the field of parapsychology, explaining what we know and don't know about so-called psi phenomena, such as \"telepathy,\" \"precognition\" or \"psychokinesis.\" Contributors evaluate the evidence for these phenomena, accounting for factors such as selective memory, wish fulfillment and incorrect methods or analyses, in some cases offering psychological, physical and biological theories.\nInstructors considering this book for use in a course may request an examination copy here.\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 0786479167\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: GBV.0786479167.G\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Cardeña, Etzel|Palmer, John|Marcusson-Clavertz, David\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: Has a sturdy binding with some shelf wear.
