This is a thoroughly updated and revised edition of our highly acclaimed university textbook on the science of parapsychology.

It outlines the origins of parapsychological research and critically reviews investigations of extrasensory perception, psychokinesis, poltergeist phenomena, near-death and out-of-body experiences, and the evaluation of parapsychology as a scientific enterprise.
