PSYCHIC CRIMINOLOGY

 

A Guide For Using

Psychics in Investigations

 

 

By Whitney S. Hibbard

      Raymond W. Worring

      Richard Brennan

 

Second Edition, Published by  Charles C. Thomas  2002

 

 

Practical and authoritative, this book is a comprehensive manual of operations for using psychics in criminal investigations.  The authors base the material on several decades of personal experience and on other first-person accounts from law enforcement personnel.  After establishing the need for such an operations manual, the text presents a short history of psychic criminology, outlines the different types of psychic ability pertinent to the investigator, then reviews the evidence and theories for paranormal phenomena.  It then details the identification, recruitment, testing and use of psychics, with close coverage afforded methods and procedures for efficient and successful investigative work with psychics.  The important role of extrasensory perception in the everyday life of the investigator also is examined. 

 

Throughout the book, the authors intersperse summaries of actual cases involving psychics to illustrate and support the topics under discussion.  Following the text is a sample Intuitive Investigation Report Form useful in psychic criminology, a glossary of parapsychological terms, and a bibliography of pertinent readings. 

 

This second edition has been edited and rewritten extensively with much new and significant material added, including a section on remote viewing, a new chapter of documented case histories, and a cogent critique of the critics of paranormal functioning.  The primary purpose of this second edition is the same as the first: to promote the professional use of psychics as investigative aides in criminal investigations.
