Psychic phenomena have long been relegated to the fringe of scientific examination, but several vigorously
supervised studies have proven that such phenomena as telepathy, precognition, and psychokinesis have a
scientific basis.

Dr. Diane Powell, a John’s Hopkins-trained neuropsychiatrist, proposes a fascinating new paradigm for
consciousness that demystifies psychic phenomena. She explores why psychic abilities are stronger among
prodigy, autistic savants, people with bipolar illness, and in individuals with certain brain injuries and other
neurological conditions.

Brain imaging and other recent research explains which parts of the brain are more dominant, and how the mind of
a mystic or psychic could have an organizational effect on the physical world. Using reliable scientific research, the
ESP Enigma establishes a common ground among psychic phenomenon, believers and skeptics.

Diane Hennacy Powell, M.D. is a former member of Harvard Medical School’s faculty and of a part-time think tank on consciousness at the Salk Institute in La Jolla, California. She has published articles in neuroscience and neuropsychiatry journals. She lives in Los Angeles, California, and Medford, Oregon.

scientifically, accurate, up to date, and comprehensive, this book shatters, conventional
beliefs about the nature of the mind and reality itself.“ – Dean Radin, Ph.D., senior scientist,
