[Lyla · Rating 5 out of 5]

Provided a nice dignified overview of the field, but the field itself doesn't have very satisfying answers to certain questions. This is probably the best that is out there. Note that it is published by the American Psychological Association, so it's dignity is more validating than just nice words.

Very good scientific overview of various "anomalous experiences."
