Summary: A basic introduction to the world of psi
Comment: I picked up this book while browsing through my county library one day and I must admit it made for a fascinating read. Young adult suspense-novelist Lois Duncan has collaborated with parapsychologist William Roll to create the definitive overview of psychic phenomena for those whose interest in the subject is just budding (primarily teenagers). Duncan describes the various aspects of psi such as out-of-body-experiences, near-death experiences, apparitions, telepathy etc. while substantiating those descriptions with evidence from Roll's laboratory research and case histories. That being said,however, the book is not without some faults and as such it won't appeal to everyone. Skeptics may blanch at the lack of alternative, rational explanations for psychic phenomena and those who are already interested in psi may find it too generic (the vast majority of the writing is done by Mrs. Duncan, Roll contributes only a short foreword and conclusion). However, this is easily forgivable as the book is not targeted at people who have already established their beliefs on psi but is intended, rather, to act as a sort of catalyst for further interest. I think Duncan and Roll have succeeded admirably on this score and I highly recommend the book to people who would like to learn more about the fascinating nature of psychic experiences.

Summary: Fascinating examination of true psychic occurrences.
Comment: This book is a must-read for anyone interested in true psychic phenomenon. There are things that happen that William Roll is trying to scientifically study, measure and authenticate here. Totally fascinating.

Summary: The best intro to parapsychology I have read!
Comment: Dr. Roll, world renound for his expertise on the poltegeist phenomenon, has writen a great book explaining the terms and common perceptions of modern parapsychology. He presents the matierial in a light and anecdotal fashion that hits close to home. A must read for those curious about parapsychology
