Psychic Sleuths

Do psychics have special powers, allowing them to succeed where ordinary
police work fails? How often do the police actually enlist psychics in
solving crimes, and what do they really think of these paranormal
"experts"? These are just some of the questions discussed in this
illuminating study of those who supposedly use extrasensory powers to
help solve crimes.
Famed paranormal investigator Joe Nickell assembled a psychic "task
force" of experienced researchers - investigative writers, professional
magicians, private detectives, and paranormal investigators - and
challenged them to examine the claims of a famous paranormal
crimebuster. Among the "psychic sleuths" examined are Greta Alexander,
Dorothy Allison, Gerard Croiset, Peter Hurkos, Phil Jordan, Rosemarie
Kerr, Noreen Reiner, and Bill Ward. Noted psychologist James E. Alcock
offers an assessment of the psychics' claims in light of the
investigative reports.
Nickell's distinguished team of investigators includes Michael R.
Dennett, Professor Kenneth Feder, Henry Gordon, Jim Lippard, Ward Lucas,
Professor Michael Park, Stephen Peterson, Dr. Gary Posner, and
Professor Lee Roger Taylor.
Psychic Sleuths will excite the curiosity of both skeptics and
believers, and all who are puzzled by psychic claims and paranormal
mysteries.
