Strange Dimensions

It is from the paranormal's multifaceted nature that the title of this book takes its meaning. Throughout its pages we encounter time and again talk of a wide variety of dimensions levels and layers from social cultural psychological and physiological dimensions to spiritual mythic narrative symbolic and experiential dimensions and onwards to other worlds planes of existence and realms of consciousness. The paranormal is by its very nature multidimensional. Once again Jack Hunter takes us down the proverbial rabbit hole here with the grace nuance and sheer intelligence of a gifted team of essayists each working in her or his own way toward new theories of history consciousness spirit the imagination the parapsychological and the psychedelic. Another clear sign that there is high hope in high strangeness and that we are entering a new era of thinking about religion about mind about us. -- Jeffrey J. Kripal author of Authors of the Impossible: The Paranormal and the Sacred.
