A New Approach To Psi Re-Envisioning Paranormal Experience As Meaningful Coincidence

This book critiques conventional parapsychological viewpoints about extrasensory perception (ESP) and psychokinesis (PK) collectively referred to as ’psi’. Since the 1930s an over-arching view on psi has been built on J. B. Rhine’s theories and research at Duke University. The author argues that there are fundamental problems with the psi paradigm and offers solutions based largely on Jung’s Theory of Synchronicity treating the subject matter in a rigorous scientific way. The synchronicity concept speaks to ambiguous psi terminology the narrow methodological approaches in psi testing and limited interpretations of psychic experience that do not consider the pivotal role of meaning. This book considers problems with terminology findings and the psi construct from a Jungian synchronistic standpoint which gives credence to issues such as archetypes meaningfulness and numinosity. An important new contribution to the understanding of psi this book will be of interest to practitioners and researchers working in the disciplines of psychology parapsychology consciousness studies and physics especially quantum mechanics. |A New Approach to Psi Re-Envisioning Paranormal Experience as Meaningful Coincidence
