Mind-Matter Interaction: A Review of Historical Reports, Theory and Research

by Pamela Rae Heath

The power of the mind to influence the physical world has long been debated, debunked, studied for military applications, and used in science fiction. This historical and theoretical study of mind-matter interaction, or MMI, explores the phenomena of levitation, stigmata, inedia, paranormal activity, bilocation, fire immunity, luminosity, and the teleportation of matter. The results of more than a century of formal experimental research are discussed, as are resultant training techniques, theories, and controlled experiments used to test or bolster psychokinetic abilities.

[Matthew C.]

This is a wealth of information as it pertains to the history of PK/MMI research and what the literature and practitioners say is conducive to PK/MMI. However, the nature of how the book is organized makes for a lot of repetition, and Heath's writing (at least in this book) is very dry and staccato.

For those reading the Kindle edition, note that note of the footnotes are hyperlinked, which becomes rather frustrating for those trying to keep track of the sources.
