This is an account of the macro-PK phenomena occurring in the home circle that was organized by author and critic John G. Neihardt, who called it called the Society for Research on Rapport and Telekinesis (SORRAT). It is written by an English professor and student of Neihardt who was, and still is, one of the principals of the group. The book is based on tapes, diaries, and photographs. A chapter each is devoted to the founding of the group; a representative year; the environments of PK activity; the participants; descriptions of unconfined PK; confined PK (within a sealed container); apports, odors, and apparitions; communicating with entities; interrelated phenomena (the occurrence of different types of psi in a meaningful pattern); and the influence of Neihardt on the group, after, as well as before, his death. The Afterword is by the major investigator of SORRAT, W.E. Cox.
