This ten-page special report inside New Scientist, by Robert Matthews and John McCrone, compares parascientific research with traditional science and draws some positive conclusions.
Recent studies of ESP, for example, are shown to have produced weightier evidence than tests on the drug streptokinase, which dissolves blood clots and has been hailed as a medical breakthrough.
I believe parascience is finally entering the mainstream, as advances in our understanding of sub-atomic physics begin to give us a framework for evaluating what really happens during telepathy and psychokinesis, for example.
The stance of New Scientist has changed greatly in the 30 years since it ran a cover story scoop 'exposing' me as a trickster who had radio receivers wired into his wisdom teeth! In 1974, scientists could say anything they liked about psychics: no slur was too extravagant. In 2004, it's the scientists and not the psychics who are setting the agenda on parapsy research.
