As this thought-provoking introductory book demonstrates, instances of supposed PES/ESP are often debunked by experts and shown to be either delusional or criminal in nature. However, there are many instances where people have demonstrated the ability to help solve crimes, feel foreshadowings of the death of a loved one, or found premonitions or déjà vu experiences actually come to life. It is the purported ability of some people to see beyond the present or solve puzzling situations in ways which seem to be the product of inexplicable mental powers that is the focus of this introductory book. By detailing a few anecdotes about people whose PES/ESP powers have been documented, briefly touching on scientific inquiry into this subject, and sharing data about what percentages of the general public either accept or reject these abilities, the author offers readers high interest content and food for thought. This book, and the series it belongs to, provide a concise look into the world of the unexplained and, as such, should appeal to a significant number of young readers.
