The Skeptic’s Guide to the Paranormal

Description

This work contains a rational explanation of 27 paranormal phenomena – from walking over hot coals to spontaneous combustion – that appear to defy the laws of science. Can a human being really burst spontaneously into flames? Just how deadly is the Bermuda Triangle? And what’s the real story behind all those alien abductions? The answers to these and many more questions are within these covers. Guaranteed to liven up any dinner party, “The Skeptic’s Guide to the Paranormal” offers explanations for many phenomena which appear to defy known science. Speaking directly to the reader, and always with respect for those who believe, Lynne Kelly presents the facts about the paranormal.
