Psychic Abilities

The book progresses systematically, first establishing a foundation in cognitive psychology and neuroscience. It then critically analyzes telekinesis and mind reading, contrasting claims of genuine ability with psychological principles like deception and nonverbal communication. By understanding perception, cognition, and cognitive biases, readers can better evaluate claims of psychic ability and avoid unfounded beliefs.

The book emphasizes empirical evidence and logical reasoning, focusing primarily on psychological and cognitive explanations. It provides readers with the critical thinking skills needed to evaluate paranormal claims, bridging the gap between science and popular culture. The book also scrutinizes the methodologies used in parapsychological research, promoting a more nuanced and skeptical approach.
