From the front flap: "With over fourteen hundred entries, this is the most up-to-date, comprehensive, and authoritative reference available on the fascinating fields of parapsychology and psychical research. Parapsychology, the study of paranormal or supernormal phenomena inexplicable by accepted principles of science has struggled for decades for scientific respectability. With this book, the Bergers have succeeded in collecting and objectively presenting a body of information that will help establish this field as a valid branch of science.

From Library Journal:

This one-volume reference work created by professional parapsychologists covers more briefly much of the same material as the classic Encyclopedia of Occultism and Parapsychology , edited by Leslie Shepard ( LJ 5/15/78). Even libraries with that two-volume work will need this one, especially for its updating, large bibliography, and listing of publications and college courses arranged by country. The new work's only real drawback is its lack of a cumulated total index, which the Gale volume contains.
