World reknowned author and catylst for social change, Upton Sinclair, surprised the public with this book in 1929... written after three years of intensive study of all available scientific psychic research, and after conducting hundreds of hands-on experiments with the aid of his associates, and his wife, Mary Craig Kimbrough. Known as "Craig" to her friends, Mrs. Sinclair had shown a life long telepathic and psychic ability, which fascinated her husband, who decided they could conduct their own scientifically controlled studies of the phenomenon. Illustrated with more than 145 pictures produced during their experiments, this book is guaranteed to fascinate, and make you think a little more deeply about the possibilities of the human mind.

This is the ground breaking, scientific work by Dr. J.B. Rhine Ph.D. from Duke University. Dr. Rhine's experiments involving telepathy clairvoyance and precognition used specially designed cards, called Zener cards. Using exact calculations, it is possible to determine how "improbable" it would be to guess an excess number of cards correctly. Within 10 years, 33 experiments had been performed, involving almost one million trials, with protocols which rigorously excluded possible sensory clues Twenty seven of the 33 studies produced statistically significant results; an exceptional record Furthermore, positive results were not restricted to Rhine's lab. In the years following Rhine's first publication, 33 independent replication experiments were conducted at different laboratories. Twenty of these were statistically significant.

There slumber in every human being faculties by means of which he can acquire for himself a knowledge of higher worlds. Mystics, Gnostics, Theosophists - all speak of a world of soul and spirit which for them is just as real as the world we see with our physical eyes and touch with our physical hands. At every moment the listener may say to himself: that, of which they speak, I too can learn, if I develop within myself certain powers which today still slumber within me. -- Rudolf Steiner

First published in 1899, Clairvoyance is Leadbeater's short handbook on the methods used in seeing and hearing beyond normal perception. Humans can only see a certain range of light under normal circumstances. If, however, eyes were sensitive to additional wavelengths of light, this would constitution clairvoyant vision. These new wavelengths become available when one starts using astral senses. Leadbeater gives his readers a thorough description of the kinds of clairvoyance that exist and how such visions are achieved. In the final chapter he answers the question that every reader wants to ask: How can I develop clairvoyance for myself? Those interested in the occult and psychic ability will find this book a must-read. English clergyman turned spiritualist CHARLES WEBSTER LEADBEATER (1854-1934) was ordained as an Anglican priest, but later joined the prominent Theosophical Society and traveled to India to study alternative spiritual and occult practices, eventually settling into his life as a clairvoyant and author. His other works include Man Visible and Invisible and The Science of the Sacrament.

The (dis)connection between psychological (or scientific) and psychic mind is a subject that has baffled man for centuries. The phenomenon captured in a very particular way the attention of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, a man in whom the analytic and artistic struggled for dominance, and inspired The New Revelation, originally published in 1918. The treatise deals not only with the issue of physical versus metaphysical, but also considers the problem of death (and afterlife) and the question of communication with the spirit world. Conan Doyle's captivating prose and pragmatic, yet human, voice makes for an enlightening exploration of some eternally relevant questions-and possible answers. Scottish surgeon and political activist SIR ARTHUR CONAN DOYLE (1859-1930) turned his passions into stories and novels, producing fiction and nonfiction works sometimes controversial (The Great Boer War, 1900), sometimes fanciful (The Coming of the Fairies, 1922), and sometimes legendary (The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes, 1892).

In the Law of Psychic Phenomena by author Thomas Jay Hudson, Hudson has attempted to create a classification of verified psychic phenomena, accounts of which is found in the literature current on the subject; and has tentatively formulated a working hypothesis for the systematic study of all classes of psychic phenomena. Hudson has collected a vast array of facts, thus accumulated and verified, and awaiting scientific classification and analysis, which would seem to justify at least a tentative effort to apply to them the processes of induction, to the end that the fundamental law of psychic phenomena may be discovered. This is an important work for those who are interested in the writings of Thomas Jay Hudson and also those with an interest in understanding psychic phenomena.

1918. The author describes how she suddenly developed the power of automatic writing. She was not a Spiritualist at the time. Her hand was controlled and she wrote a quantity of matter which was entirely outside her own knowledge or character. The pages in this book contain a partial history of her discovery. While much of the more intimate personal matter has been omitted, most of those to whom these messages were given have felt impelled to share, in this tragic time, the comfort and assurance of their conviction, and have voluntarily yielded their privacy, hoping thereby to bring to those in sorrow an added faith in the continuance of personality, with all that this implies.

This book chronicles the life of Barbarosa (Kheir-ed-din), a 16th Century Corsair who rose from an obscure birth to supreme Admiral of the Ottoman Navy. He was also a great linguist, a marine architecht of note, the supreme master of Galley warfare and a warrior of exceptional courage who survived 40 years of sea battles to die in bed with a beautiful, young wife at his side. His story also serves as a canvas on which to paint one of history's great, but too little known empires in its heyday, and to bring alive an exciting chapter of the age-old war between Islam and Christianity.
By the end of the 15th century Islamic Turkey's fierce horsemen and terrible cannons had conquered the Middle East, Greece, the Balkans and much of the Black Sea littoral. Early in the 16th, a young and brilliant Sultan, promising to say his five daily prayers in France and stable his horse in Rome, thundered hundreds of miles up the Danube to digest Hungary and much of the old Roman Empire. Stymied by weather and distance, he turned to the sea, called on Barbarosa, and in one generation, built a navy which conquered the Mediterranean.
In minor instances the chronology is manipulated or characters are expanded in order to give coherence or fill gaps in the historical record. These are minor and are clearly identified. Otherwise, the people in this book all lived and the adventures all happened.
The accuracy of this book is the accuracy of most history.
