The editors, Dr. Adam J. Rock and Dr. Lance Storm, put In Search of Psi together because they noted that the vast majority of similar books on the intriguing subject of parapsychology are actually too lightweight and lack any real depth on the more serious aspects of the paranormal. Rock and Storm decided to assemble a collection of papers by a diverse group of authors, researchers, experimenters, and theorists, culminating in a total of eighteen chapters on a wide variety of paranormal subjects under three main themes: extrasensory perception (mind-to-mind communication), psychokinesis (mind over matter), and life after death. Topics covered include telepathy (thought transference), precognition (seeing the future), human levitation, multiple dimensions, and the riddle of space time. There are chapters that thoughtfully delve into the possibility that human personality can survive bodily death. In Search of Psi discusses communication with departed loved ones, a subject familiar to many people who have seen television programs featuring the famous American psychic John Edward."
