About This Item
Macmillan, 1976. 1st Edition . Soft cover. Good. Book is clean with a square, tight binding. Book has a previous owner's name and date on title page some personal notes at the end of the text, tidy underlining throughout the text and age-tanned pages. Book has minor wear on the edges that is difficult to see in the scans. PICADOR THE ROOTS OF COINCIDENCE by ARTHUR KOESTLER Extra-sensory perception - telepathy, pre-cognition, clairvoyance, hypnosis - has for generations been dismissed as illusion, coincidence, spookery, fakery or near insanity. But now theoretical physics cheerfully breaks all the 'laws of nature' with such concepts as black holes and time flowing backwards. In this highly controversial book, Arthur Koestler argues that now the old scientific obiections to ESP have been removed by the scientists themselves, the field is open for a totally new attitude towards parapyschology, and suggests that there is a natural law that leads to what we call coincidence. Clearly, sensibly and knowledgeably argued, this is a fine, rambunctious essay in the punchy Koestler tradition. The book you see in the images is the actual book we have for sale. Why pay more?
