The Link: Matthew Manning's Own Story of His Extraordinary Psychic Gifts

Rate this book
The Link is Mathew Manning's own story. From the mysterious beginnings when he was only eleven, to the frightening days at boarding school where he was asked to carry out medieval rituals of exorcism, to his present worldwide fame, Matthew relates his experiences with a matter-of-factness that makes the astonishing story even more fascinating - and credible.

Whatever his powers are - and he doesn't know why or how they work - scientists who test him get startling results. For the first time, these scientists believe, a rational explanation of psychic phenomena is in sight. When it comes, it is likely to be Matthew Manning who provides the link to this breakthrough.

I met Matthew at the Crown Hotel in Harrogate, UK back in 97 when I resided there. I went to one of his healing circles. We spoke and later developed a friendship when I was on Facebook. He's a great guy, moreover I found, in my opinion, his veracity to be unquestionable
