| | |  1951 - December: Parapsychology and personal survival after deathSupernatural
phenomena are still being dismissed by the academic community. Influenced by
recent breaktroughs leading to an explanation of some mysteries, they have come

sectors, hardly anyone daring to voice an opinion on general issues.
