This volume comprises lectures given by several authors presented at the 1956 CIBA Foundation Symposium on the subject of ESP (extrasensory perception) and hosted by Dr. A. S. Parkes, M.D. of the National Institute for Medical Research, London, England.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&nbsp;- Experiences suggestive of psychic cognition in psychoanalysis, by W. H. Gillespie&nbsp;
