BodyMindSpirit: Exploring the Parapsychology of Spirituality Tart, Charles T. (Ed.).
Tart explains that the essays collected here aim to provide "a detailed exploration of the spiritual implications that can be drawn from modern scientific research in parapsychology" (p. 22). It has been some time since a book on parapsychology and religion has appeared. In my opinion this is one of the best. But it goes beyond any previous works in that it is on parapsychology and spirituality, not religion. Unfortunately, in the space of an abstract there is room only for a listing of the authors and titles. In the order in which they appear, they are: World Parliament of Superstition? Scientific Evidence for a Basic Reality to the Spiritual, by Charles T. Tart; My Search for the Soul, by William G. Roll; Some Reflections on Religion and Anomalies of Consciousness, by K. Ramakrishna Rao; Exceptional Human Experiences and the Experiential Paradigm, by Rhea A. White; The Parapsychology of God, by Michael Grosso; Some Thoughts on Parapsychology and Religion, by Stephen E. Braude; Intuition: A Link Between Psi and Spirituality; Parapsychology and Spirituality: Implications and Intimations, by William Braud; Spirituality in the Natural and Social Worlds, by Hoyt L. Edge; Phenomena Suggestive of Life After Death: A Spiritual Existence, by Karlis Osis; Who or What Might Survive Death?, by Charles T. Tart; Channeling and Spiritual Teachings, by Arthur C. Hastings; and On the Scientific Study of Nonphysical Worlds, by Charles T. Tart.
