Summary: The BEST book on Soviet Psychic Discoveries
Review: I've included some quote reviews and books at the bottom of my review.

This version is the abridged first book "Psychic Discoveries Behind the Iron Curtain". Plus it's the updated account, "The Iron Curtain Lifted." I've recommended this book to numerous
people interested in what the Soviets where are up to and are
capable of doing. This includes PK, knocking people out using telepathy, Czech psychotronics, hypnosis, remote influencing,
remote viewing, eyeless sight, healing with thought, etc. etc.

This should be the text book for any *serious* study of Psi abilities.

There are pictures in the center of the book showing some of the Russian Psychics (Wolf Messing) and PK experts. Plus Kirlian photography, acupuncture points, dowsing, etc.

The book also discusses the US program of Remote Viewing and the work being done at the Stanford Research Institute and the CIA... etc.

Here are a quote reviews found on/in the book:

"The most important book about ESP research and the validity of the occult tradition yet to appear." - Los Angeles Times

"One of the most exciting and awesome books ever to come our way. Ostrander and Schroeder have done an outstanding job... the monumental amount of research and condensation is staggering." - The Indianapolis Star

"This book's sheer dynamite!" - Rocky Mountain News

"A serious, objective attempt to compile the findings of research into psychic phenomena in the USSR." - Chicago Daily News

"One of the most exciting books on psychic research to come to my attention in a great many years" -Hugh Lyn Cayce, Director Edgar Cayce Association

"This book should make waves right up to the Pentagon..." Kirkus Reviews
(and the first book did!!)

If you are interested in what the Chinese are doing then
check out the books by Paul Dong, including
China's Major Mysteries: Paranormal Phenomena and the Unexplained in the People's Republic, China's Super Psychics.

Summary: Can we really believe any of it anymore?
Review: The original edition of Psychic Discoveries was interesting when it came out the first time but back then people were maybe more credulous. Strange how some of the things seem harder to believe now the Ruskies are our friends.

And what about all that stuff about "astrological birth control"? I found a book about it on Amazon called "The Lunar Cycle: Astrological Fertility Control" by Francesca Naish. Quite interesting actually.

Summary: Large pinch of salt on standby...
Review: This is another book by the comedy duo Schroeder and Ostrander - the gullible pair who were obviously duped into believeing pro-Soviet hype for a "magic" learning system called "Superlearning" that they put together after so called demonstrations of wonderous and effortless learning in communist Bulgaria in the 70's. You only need to read my other reviews to see just what I think of the crap the Superlearning company produces! Anyway, it looks like they also fell for more hype and propaganda from Russia this time! Look at some of the titles in the book "Is it getting crowded on the moon?"!!! Come on! Some of the accounts they give are just so obviously contrived, such as the 8 foot alian who landed in Voronezh and took a stroll through a crowded square with his smaller companion that he called "robot". Robot? You mean he/it said that in English or Russian? Maybe it was Czech, after all "robot"is a word coined by a Czech author! It isn't Star Trek where every life form speaks English for our benefit! How they could be taken in I'll never know...or were they taken in? It's a good money spinner, after all! And just who provided all the statistics and experimental findings? It wasn't the same kind of people who gave them the "facts" about Suggestopedia and those convoluted retention rates, was it? I'm sure the Soviets were totally decent people who wouldn't dream of making things up, would they. Next the'll be saying that the moon landings never took place. I ask you!!! This title is another piece of idiotic fiction to add to your "Superlearning" collection.
