More Description

Discover the amazing secrets of the poltergeist phenomenon (are they ghosts or something far stranger?), when you read Poltergeists & the Paranormal by Dr. Philip Stander and Dr. Paul Schmolling.

Dr. Stander served as the chairperson of the Department of Behavioral Sciences at Kingsborough Community College. Dr. Schmolling is a professor at that college and a clinical psychologist in private practice. Together, they have made Poltergeists & the Paranormal a "haunting" and illuminating book for use everywhere, from around the campfire to a college classroom.

Poltergeists & the Paranormal contains real case histories of poltergeists, psychokinesis, ghosts, and ESP, some of which have never been published before. The authors give possible explanations, allowing you to review anecdotal and scientific evidence for ghostly and psychokinetic phenomena.

In Poltergeists & the Paranormal you will discover:

What the poltergeist phenomena is
A survey of the supernatural in ancient times
Early European cases
Famous British cases
American cases
Poltergeists and psychoanalysis
Poltergeists in the laboratory

This is only a small amount of what you will find in the book. For example, poltergeists usually are playful creatures that pop bottles, throw rocks and household articles, cause objects to disappear and reappear, set fires, and make all kinds of strange noises. In Poltergeists & the Paranormal, it is revealed that there is a new type of poltergeist that delights in interfering with electronic devices such as telephones, electric typewriters, lighting fixtures, and computers. Two cases are examined, one in a small town in Germany and another in a not so small town in the U.S.A.: Hollywood, California.

So, what does it all mean? The authors provide four possible theories to explain the poltergeist phenomenon. Which theory do you think it is? Read Poltergeists & the Paranormal and decide for yourself.
