ABSTRACT
Galileo took a seminal role in launching the first
revolution in the physical sciences, and a key
element in this revolution was the rigorous,
sophisticated observation of physical phenomena.
Darwin likewise launched a revolution in the life
sciences on the basis of decades of meticulous
observation of biological phenomena. Although...

| "Science and the taboo of psi" with Dean Radin |
 |
Google Tech Talks
January, 16 2008
ABSTRACT
Do telepathy, clairvoyance and other "psi"
abilities exist? The majority of the general
population believes that they do, and yet fewer
than one percent of mainstream academic
institutions have any faculty known for their
interest in these frequently reported experiences.
Why is a topic of enduring and widespread interest
met with such resounding silence in academia? The
answer is not due to a lack of scientific
evidence, or even to a lack of scientific
interest, but rather involves a taboo. I will
discuss the nature of this taboo, some of the
empirical evidence and critical responses, and
speculate on the implications.
Speaker: Dean Radin
Dean Radin is a researcher and author in the field
of parapsychology. He is Senior Scientist at the
Institute of Noetic Sciences and four-time former
President of the Parapsychological Association. He
holds an undergraduate degree in electrical
engineering from the University of Massachusetts
Amherst, and a masters degree in electrical
engineering and a doctorate in educational
psychology from the University of Illinois at
Urbana-Champaign. He has worked at AT&T Bell Labs
and GTE Labs, mainly on human factors of advanced
telecommunications products and services, and held
appointments at Princeton University, Edinburgh
University, University of Nevada, Las Vegas, SRI
International, Interval Research Corporation, and
Boundary Institute. At these facilities he was
engaged in basic research on exceptional human
capacities, principally psi phenomena.
