The Secret History of the U.S. Government's Investigations into Extrasensory Perception and Psychokinesis
Annie Jacobsen
This book delves into the U.S. government's secret programs involving ESP and PK, which were explored as potential military and intelligence tools. Jacobsen uses never-before-seen declassified documents and exclusive interviews with over fifty individuals, including former CIA and Defense Department scientists, analysts, and government psychics. The book examines how these programs were initiated, the key players involved, and the various missions undertaken, such as locating hostages and predicting future threats to national security. It also explores the scientific approach to these enigmatic phenomena and the ongoing debate about their validity[1][4][5].

What if we have our concept of time all wrong? What if the future can influence the past retrocausally? What if precognition, synchronicity and remote viewing are evidence of that fact? Eric Wargo explores and argues for these ideas at length in his book, Timeloops. In his latest, Becoming Timefaring, Wargo explores time paradoxes, time travel, the possibility that the UFO phenomenon is related to time-traveling future humans, and much more.
