" The time has come for an authoritative book on the facts about ESP and PK.
For a time the widespread interest in these capacities was on the popular level, but now it has begun to spread through professional and scientific groups as well.
Today students in colleges want to find out what is known about psi capacity, and even a few courses on parapsychology are being announced. "

" To fill this need the authors have written a book that in itself introduces the reader to the field of parapsychology, defines the terms, describes the methods, and summarizes all the main facts accumulated to date.
More than that, it provides for the convenience of professional and research workers the basic techniques used in the tests on which most of the psi investigations have depended; and it adds tables and measures for the appraisal of test results.
It is readable; it is comprehensive; it is useful as a manual. "
