About this listen

Is extrasensory perception or “ESP” real?

The possibility of ESP fascinates us, providing the plot for countless films and television shows. Think of The Shining or The Twilight Zone. No one denies how much ESP has captured the popular imagination, but is there any factual basis for it?

Some say yes - even leading scientists. Recently, researchers have begun giving serious attention to what was once thought a pseudo-science. As human concepts of reality keep expanding, the existence of ESP appears ever more plausible.

In this series of three fascinating episodes, Dr. Robert Lawrence Kuhn - neuroscientist and author of 25 books - hosts 11 guest experts for a discussion of ESP and its challenge to the scientific or physical-only worldview: not least its implications for the extension of consciousness beyond death.

Drs. Marilyn Schlitz and Dean Radin star in all three episodes of Is ESP Real? The Science of a Sixth Sense. Pillars of the series, the two bring their diverse academic training in anthropology and electrical engineering to bear on the strange and exciting topic of psychic phenomena that belie traditional understandings of taste, touch, smell, sight, and sound.

Along the way you’ll also hear from nine other experts, including the founder of The Skeptics Society; the winner of the 1982 US National Book Award in Science; and the one-time Director of the National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA).

Now is your chance to explore the science of a so-called “sixth sense” with the pioneers of parapsychology.

Sometimes it's nice to take a break from practical science, and delve into the mysterious. ESP at first seems ridiculous, but after listening to 11 experts debate this topic in this program, I must admit there are some ESP-related events that are not totally explicable by our current understanding of science. This is a really good listen.

Better Than I Expected

I read a novel one day about a girl who can predict the future; it was great when I was 15. When I started this audiobook, I thought it would be shallow and superficial. After all, what is going to be said about the sixth sense, parapsychology, reading minds, and ESP?
Actually, they have something to say. I did not know that the topic is deep and interesting. Parapsychology is interesting in novels and movies, but I did not think it would be that good as a scientific topic.

Let me say that the soundtracks are FASCINATING. An audiobook about ESP and parapsychology must have great soundtracks.
Dr. Robert Lawrence Kuhn is a great interviewer. His voice brought the topics alive.
For me, I am convinced that ESP is real but we did not discover it yet. As one of the scientists said “There is not paranormal. It can only be some natural explanation or nothing.” Of course, there are arguments about all the questions you may ask. Dr. Robert really knows how to run a great interview and ask important questions.

It is a great course for people who are interested in pseudo-science and supernatural. I will read the novel again and I am sure it will be different for me now.

ESP, Science, & Reality: WOW

Science continues to amaze us by revealing new human capacities. The question of ESP has obviously been the subject of hot debate. Kuhn brings together a group of thoughtful experts and addresses the science head on. A pleasure to listen to.
