Product Description

For years paranormal scientists have explored the detection and documentation of spirits, auras, ESP, hypnosis, and many more phenomena through electronics. Electronic Projects from the Next Dimension provides useful information on building practical circuits and projects, and applying the knowledge to unique experiments in the paranormal field. The author writes about dozens of inexpensive projects to help electronics hobbyists search for and document their own answers about instrumental transcommunication (ITC), the electronic voice phenomenon (EVP), and paranormal experiments involving ESP, auras, and Kirlian photography.

Although paranormal studies are considered esoteric, Electronic Projects from the Next Dimension teaches the technical skills needed to make devices that can be used in many different kinds of experiments. Each section indicates how the circuit can be used in paranormal experiments with suggestions about procedures and how to analyze the results.

Provides unique projects for believers and skeptics.
Perfect for any level of electronics experience.
Learn from these basics projects and design your own applications.

Ok but 12 May 2009

By Mr. N. Bardell

Format:Paperback

Thgis book is fairly well written and explains the projects very well. However, for me there could have been more 'original' projects rather than the white noise generators and EMF to audio converters (EMF listener). For me the author could have tried to develop some unique ideas to help push the boundaries of paranormal research a little.

With that aside, the book was good and did inspire me to think of other ideas that could be experimented with.

Book ok but projects not entirely user friendly 18 Aug 2002

By "stevegossett" - Published on Amazon.com

Format:Paperback

I enjoy the book but unless someone is knowledgable in electronics I would not suggest this book. I know some electronics and I found this book lacking in respect to listings of parts values in several projects. I have basically had to guess at parts values. Several projects require winding ferrite rod coils and neglect to say with what kind of wire (ie magnetic or coated). There are references to using potentiometers but a failure to list what ratings. Just stating a 47 ohm potentiometer is not sufficient. This actually makes the projects more costly to build. Some of these parts you cannot readily find anymore in electronic shops whether looking in a retailer like Radio Shack or a surplus place. I have found that Ferrite Rods can be ordered online and thats about it. I would say that knowledge wise this book is great but it is not very detailed in its listing of parts values which is pretty critical I think. It has caused me several headaches as it is.

Good initiative but not convincing 28 Aug 2004

By Lawrence - Published on Amazon.com

Format:Paperback

The book has a very good initiative: to collect a number of circuits dedicated to paranormal experiments. However, after reading through the first few chapters, I was very dissappointed. Personally I do believe in ghosts and life-after-death, but the experiments described cannot offer any scientific proof of anything, they are just plain sloppy! Recording some sound from a noise source and then analyzing the recording later! Well, you might pick up some audio from next door or your TV downstairs! These types of results can never convince anyone, no wonder that these "paranormal investigators" can never make it to the mainstream. Other negative comments include: The numerous circuits for noise generation, but no explanation of the advantage or difference among them; in fact, they might all produce the same results! then why waste so much space describing them in the first place! The camera in front of the TV is another joke, one might pick up some weird patterns but how can you claim that they are ghosts?

Very interesting book 6 Aug 2001

By Wonk Horkin - Published on Amazon.com

Format:Paperback

This book is technically very good, the author is a respected educator, and potential buyers should not be put off by the paranormal aspect of it. The experiments are interesting in any context. Just as a book about, for example, fly fishing does not guarantee that fish exist, this book does not address the question of whether any spirits really are out there attempting to communicate with us. It does, however, present logical ideas about how we might detect such attempts if they do exist. It follows in the footsteps of similar studies conducted by many respected scientists and engineers, including Edison.
