Review # 1 was written on 2012-03-13 00:00:00 James Barnhart Interesting book documenting the psi research of psychotherapist Dr. Jule Eisenbud on Ted Serios. Serios was an unemployed alcoholic former bellhop who could mentally burn images (when drunk) onto undeveloped Polaroid film. It has been toughly proven he faked the whole thing but still a really interesting read. Lots of great crisp images of Ted’s “Though images”. A really good example of badly done controlled clinical testing.

Review # 2 was written on 2016-07-14 00:00:00 Jarrel Hamer What a great book! I loved the honesty that W.D. Ehrhart had in this book. He told it like it was, rather than how it should have been. I am teaching the Vietnam War to high school juniors and I believe this will give me a depth of knowledge like no other book would.
