Best Evidence

About the Book

Best Evidence has emerged as a highly-praised
classic in the field of paranormal research. It
documents the author's three-year quest to uncover
the best available scientific evidence for ESP,
psychokinesis, mental healing, ghosts and
poltergeists, dowsing, mediums, near death
experiences (NDE), reincarnation and other
"impossible phenomena" that refuse to disappear.

Amazon.Com book reviewer Gail Hudson summed
up the book this way: "Schmicker assembles scientific
documentation for experiences that many readers
intuitively believe are real, despite mainstream
skepticism. Expect a credible collection of convincing
evidence, such as a published report in the American
Journal of Diseases of Children in which a Seattle
doctor offers a detailed account of a near-death
experience. Or a 1995 report from the CIA on the
practice of remote viewing, in which the U.S.
Government hired psychics to spy on other countries.
Other evidence is presented to convince readers of
death-bed visions, ghosts and poltergeists, and
reincarnation. While anyone can manipulate data to
draw their own conclusions, Schmicker's evenhanded,
journalistic style brings credibility and a no-nonsense
tone to these esoteric discussions. He also
possesses a smooth, accessible writing style that
makes it easy to digest the research, studies, and
data that his book is based upon. After each chapter,
he offers a 'Highly Recommended Reading' list so
readers can continue their own research."
