Description

Women in Parapsychology: Proceedings of an International Conference Held in Dublin, Ireland, September 21st-22nd, 1991, edited by Lisette Coly and Rhea A. White.

Publication Date: 1994

Each year, the Parapsychology Foundation hosts an international conference, during which a different topic relating to parapsychology is discussed. The conference was begun by Eileen J. Garret and Frances P. Bolton, shortly after they founded the Parapsychology Foundation. They brought together from all over the world some of the men and women working in isolation in a field regarded by many as too remote for respectable research. Eileen Garret inaugurated these conference to encourage those early parpsychologists to advance beyond an easy orthodoxy of thought and technique into the broader aspect of physics, chemistry, and biology and to relate these fields of research to the human personality and the largely unknown extrasensory capacities it contains. The following presenters contributed chapters and position papers to the volume: Dr. Susan J. Blackmore, Dr. Ruth-Inge Heinz, Dr. Anjum Khilji, Joanne D.S. McMahon, Dr. Beverly Rubik, Dr. Marilyn J. Schlitz, Rhea A. White, and Dr. Nancy L. Zingrone.
