The Physics of the Paranormal is one of the few books in existence that actually explores, in depth, the physical mechanisms that may be in operation when various paranormal events occur. In order to provide these revolutionary insights, the author applied several concepts derived from his lifelong research into UFO propulsion and secondary effects. The application of these new physical principles to the paranormal reveals a fascinating unity in the mechanism in operation behind such apparently diverse phenomena as mental photography, psychokinesis, the Geller effects, bodily transfigurations, and miracle cures.
Based on some of the author’s own experiences with telepathy, the book also explores this phenomenon, as well as its role in the process of reincarnation.
This book is not a compendium of case histories. It focuses on selected cases and seeks to provide the serious student of the subject with a conceptual framework that will guide future paranormal research well into the twenty-first century.
Kenneth W. Behrendt has been a lifelong student of phenomena in the fields of ufology and the paranormal. Although professionally trained as a chemist, he has been investigating and writing about the UFO phenomenon since the early 1980's. After a personal experience with telepathy in 1978, his interest in the paranormal also intensified. Noting that many of the terrestrial paranormal effects also seemed to have their counter-parts in the UFO phenomena, he has managed to successfully merge these two areas of inquiry by finding common physical mechanisms inherent to them.
He currently resides in suburban New Jersey where he continues his researches in the areas of ufology, paranormal phenomena, and free energy physics.
This book is an attempt to bring the many and varied phenomena of the paranormal into the realm of understandable science. I realize that this is no easy task and the reader should therefore view what is to follow as the mere formulation of tentative working hypotheses for the topics treated. If paranormal phenomena (a term I use to collectively refer to all hyperphysical, psychic, parapsychological, supernatural, or supraphysical events) are ever to be included within the bounds of physical science, then research in the subject must progress far beyond the current voluminous compilation of case histories. Indeed, to eventually determine the physical truth regarding these events, we must initially engage in speculation which meets two basic criteria. Firstly, this speculation must not be random, but rather be guided by intuition toward the concepts which offer the greatest promise of advancement in paranormal science. Secondly and even more importantly, all proposals for the causative mechanisms of the various paranormal phenomena should be capable of experimental verification or denial.
It is an unfortunate fact that much of the material in this new area of human knowledge is subjective in nature and only rarely repeatable under laboratory conditions. This reality has discouraged most of the scientific orthodoxy from pursuing the subject.
The field has therefore been left to the private investigators who, through their writings, have done an excellent job of recording and preserving the data, but have not managed to significantly advance the theoretical basis of the subject whic
