Although the symposium was held in 1956, giving it historic value, the various investigations into extrasensory perception are fascinating, thought-provoking, and still as relevant in present-day parapsychological research and consciousness studies as they ever were.
A brief outline of the investigations include:
- Laboratory evidence for ESP, by R. A. McConnell
- Inherent difficulties in scientific recognition of ESP, by J. Fraser Nicol
- Field theories for organismic behaviour, including psi phenomena such as clairvoyance, by Dr. G. D. Wassermann
- Statistical aspects of ESP research, by S. G. Soal
- Experiences suggestive of psychic cognition in psychoanalysis, by W. H. Gillespie
