After more than 23 years in the shadows of a top secret military intelligence program, remote viewing (RV) became a public phenomenon in late 1995. A form of controlled clairvoyance practiced successfully by military spies, remote viewing captured the public imagination the instant it was revealed. But until the publication of The Essential Guide To Remote Viewing, there has been no definitive written road map of the what, why, who, and the how-to of this form of practical extra-sensory perception. Now here is that road map. Written by one of the world's foremost experts on the subject, retired Army Major Paul H. Smith, Ph.D, a seven-year veteran of the military's Star Gate psychic espionage program, The Essential Guide To Remote Viewing covers all the bases for a wide audience. Whether the reader is a curious investigator, a beginning remote viewer, or an old hand looking for a way to explain the practice to skeptical friends and family, this guide fills the bill. Dr. Smith sets aside the hype and sensationalism that often surrounds the paranormal and instead delivers a down-to-earth introduction to the science and practice behind remote viewing. His nearly 40 years as a remote viewer and remote viewing instructor in the military and civilian life have prepared him to compile this accessible book. As the title suggests, the Essential Guide introduces its readers to all the essentials of remote viewing. This Guide unfolds exciting remote viewing results, gives a clear picture of the science behind the phenomenon, shows how remote viewing is being successfully used today, offers hands-on beginner exercises, and shares pointers on how to choose a reputable teacher if the reader decides to seek formal training. In an era when science is starting to admit just how much we still don t know about the profound abilities of the human mind, The Essential Guide To Remote Viewing is the place on the package where it says Open Here.
