Buffalo, NY Prometheus Books, 1989. Hardcover First Edition [1989]; probable later printing, but none is indicated. INSCRIBED AND SIGNED BY THE AUTHOR.

Free of any ownership names, dates, addresses, notations, inscriptions, stamps, plates, or labels. A handsome nearly-new copy, structurally sound and tightly bound, showing the very mildest wear and minor, unobtrusive flaws. Bright and Clean. Corners sharp. Close to "As New". The DJ is flawless; unclipped; mylar-protected. As New. NOT a Remainder, Book-Club, or Ex-Library. 8vo. (9.35 x 6.35 x 1.5 inches). 447 pages. Language: English. Weight: 32.5 ounces.

Hardback. New. Ever since the Society for Psychical Research was founded, parapsychologists have been attempting to prove the existence of paranormal phenomena - things like clairvoyance, telepathy, precognition, and remote viewing. This title reviews the history and methods of psychical research.

An excellent copy of the first edition of Hyman's examination into psychical research. Hyman is a Professor Emeritus of Psychology at the University of Oregon, and a prime mover in modern skepticism. He writes a very fair book, evaluating and critiquing, and always interesting. Pages are all but as new: bright, clean, no marks or inscriptions at all. Binding tight. DJ is very nice, just the most minor shelf wear perhaps, and a couple of tiny marks on front.See photos, all of which are of the copy for sale, we don't use stock photos.
