States of Mind: ESP and Altered States of ConsciousnessParker, Adrian | |
This is the first general survey of altered states of consciousness and ESP to be published in book form, and it is by a clinical psychologist who has engaged in parapsychological research. The range of topics covered is reflected in the chapter headings: "ESP and Consciousness"; "Hypnosis and ESP"; "Trance Mediumship"; "Dream States and ESP"; "Out-of-the-Body Experiences and Lucid Dreams"; "Pathological States"; "Psychedelic States"; "Meditation, Mysticism, and Alpha States"; and "Is there a Post-Mortem ASC?" The emphasis throughout is on empirical research. Parker shows how various interpersonal factors are related to both ESP and ASCs and offers suggestions for further research. | |
