Book Description
Science and Magic in the Modern World is a unique text that explores the role of magical thinking in everyday life. It provides an excellent psychological look at the subconscious belief in magic in both popular culture and society, as well as experimental research that considers human consciousness as a derivative of belief in the supernatural, thus showing that our feelings, emotions, attitudes and other psychological processes follow the laws of magic. This book synthesises the science of ‘natural’ phenomena and the magic of the ‘supernatural’ to present an interesting look at the juxtaposition of the inner and outer selves. Fusing research into psychological disorders, subconscious feelings, as well as the rising presence of artificial intelligence, this book demonstrates how an engagement with magical thinking can enhance one’s creativity and cognitive skills. Science and Magic in the Modern World is an invaluable resource for those studying consciousness, as well as those looking at the effect of magical thinking on religion, politics, science and society.

Book Description
“A convincing account of science’s flirtation with the marginal and the marvelous” from the author of Conjuring Science (Journal of the History of the Behavioral Sciences). Séances were wildly popular in France between 1850 and 1930, when members of the general public and scholars alike turned to the wondrous as a means of understanding and explaining the world. Sofie Lachapelle explores how five distinct groups attempted to use and legitimize séances: spiritists, who tried to create a new “science” concerned with the spiritual realm and the afterlife; occultists, who hoped to connect ancient revelations with contemporary science; physicians, psychiatrists, and psychologists, who developed a pathology of supernatural experiences; psychical researchers, who drew on the unexplained experiences of the public to create a new field of research; and metapsychists, who attempted to develop a new science of yet-to-be understood natural forces. An enlightening and entertaining narrative that includes colorful people like “Allan Kardec”—a pseudonymous former mathematics teacher from Lyon who wrote successful works on the science of the séance and what happened after death—Investigating the Supernatural reveals the rich and vibrant diversity of unorthodox beliefs and practices that existed at the borders of the French scientific culture in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. “What is science? . . . In her engaging book, Sophie Lachapelle probes for an answer by looking at the liminal realm between science and superstition and the attempt to render the supernatural explicable in naturalistic terms.” —Isis “A welcome addition to the growing literature on spiritism, occultism and physical research in modern France.” —French History

Book Description
In The Supernatural Science - Theory and Magic, the reader finds many explanations for various themes given as mystical or supernatural. The explanations given by Dave Rei Martins go far beyond mere descriptions, also, they are a scientific analysis and detached of "mysteries" or reasons of religious nature. The explanations are based on experiments made by renowned universities and laboratories in various countries. The correlation shown between paranormal events is dissected and analyzed, encompassing quantum physics, astrophysics, neuropsychology, biology, and neurology to give us a greater understanding of what those facts are. For example, from time to time we hear about the law of attraction, communication with spirits, karma, and so on, but how does all this happen? How does this attraction occur from a scientific point of view? In communicating with spirits, how can a living person hear a dead person? Is it the case of a more powerful ear or is there a neutrino wave carrying sound from another dimension, which is accessed by the medium and their electromagnetic field? This book addresses the "hows" and not the "whys" such events happen. That the law of attraction exists, we all know, but when we dig deep, we find no answers to how it works. We just learn the same thing on different wording: "The law of attraction is all about you attract what you think", "The law of attraction works because thought has power", "The law of attraction is a universal law", "You attract what you think"... and The list goes on. In this book, the reader finds the answer he or she so much seeks. What power is that the brain has? And what is this power made of? Is it an electromagnetic wave? What is the vibration range of this wave? Can it be seen in Magnetic Resonance Imaging? Is it the case of the neuronal synapse that transforms electrical impulses into electromagnetic impulses that will give rise to extensive interaction with the Higgs field, and this will bring together the fermions and neutrinos needed to shape the initial impulse of thought into magnetic, making thoughts capable of attracting something physical? In The Supernatural Science - Theory and Magic, the reader has a chance to know the names and all the terminologies regarding the particles that make up the aura; to know the mechanisms of the tarot cards wavefield, and how a person can be identified as a medium under biological analysis and magnetic resonance. This book is an amalgamation of science and spirituality as it has never seen before. There are scientific explanations or simplifications for all the spiritual or magical events, and this book brings more objectivity to all the spiritual topics, having us closer to science and rationality while validating and making all mystical and paranormal events sound like a computer and software specifications. "Miracle or magic is what science cannot explain or understand until the phenomenon is understood or studied, then scientists call it a physical event."

Book Description
Sanford Schwartz offers a penetrating new reading of Lewis's celebrated Space Trilogy. Taken together, Schwartz's readings call into question Lewis's self-styled image as a "dinosaur" out of step with the main currents of modern thought. Far from a simple struggle between an old-fashioned Christian humanism and a newfangled heresy, Lewis's Space Trilogy should be seen as the searching effort of a modern religious apologist to sustain and enrich the former through critical engagement with the latter.
