  Paranormal is the term generally applied to phenomena that science cannot explain or chooses to ignore. This book examines these phenomena and sets out to show that the world of the paranormal is a whole universe of meaning and of interconnected areas of study. It highlights certain aspects of the paranormal that tell us much about the workings of the unseen and unexplained, including the extraordinary powers of the human mind. It explores connections and potentials and finds much that is new in some of the better-known cases and histories. Some of the most highly respected researchers in the field have contributed entries, which cover such subjects as miracles, witchcraft, UFOs and multiple personalities.
