Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Success in the formal scientific investigation of phenomena has always required that man learn to speak formally about the phenomena under investigation. Psychic phenomena are considered in terms of the unresolved problem of the relation between mind and matter, with paraphysics being defined as the physics of paranormal processes.

Download or read book The Paraphysical Principles of Natural Philosophy written by Dr James E Beichler, PhD and published by . This book was released on 2024-04-04 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The word 'paraphysics' has never been precisely defined, but it literally means beyond normal physics. Otherwise, it can be likened to Bio- psychophysics or even Neurocosmology which are sometimes used to replace the word when explanation is hard. Paraphysics is frowned upon by the scientific community if accepted at all, so to establish paraphysics as a true science, the word is first defined, and its scope and limits identified to familiarize everyone with it. The natural phenomena that are studied in paraphysics, psi and other anomalous phenomena, are distinguished by their common physical properties. The historical roots of paraphysics back to the late nineteenth-century are also discussed. It is clearly shown that Paraphysics can be defined, represented by a specific body of natural, although non-normal, phenomena and it has a historical basis. Therefore, Paraphysics is a science distinguishable upon its own merits albeit unpopular. It only needs a theoretical foundation.
