By now, parapsychology should have become an accepted scientific
field of research. However, there is great resistance to
parapsychological research despite the strength of evidence in
favor of conducting it. This collection of essays focuses on the
future of the psychical research field. One essay speculates about
the kind of future where psychic phenomena are studied in every
university. Another identifies 10 areas of potential difficulty
facing parapsychology. Other essays indicate areas where
conclusions may need re-examination and refinement and presents
possibilities for innovative approaches to future study. Some of
the areas of study covered include altered states of consciousness,
ESP, Meta-Analysis, the theory of psychopraxia, and sociological
and phenomenological issues.
