Customer Reviews

A good guide4
This book is a very good "guide" to have if you want to start with parapsychology. It does not describe what parapsychology is, if you want that then this book is not what you want, but it does have a list of recommended books to read, webpage's to visit, journal to subscribe to, parapsychology foundation you can join and a lot's of more.
A book where you have everything on one place and books that is worth reading (we all know how many parapsychology books there are and how difficult it is to find really good ones).
