7765Various: Philosophical Library; et al. First Edition. Original wraps. Very Good/Very Good. I think I've reached the point that I'm convinced enough of the reality of the ET presence and I'm not going to deny it and shy away from it. It is time to open this up to the public." - Edgar Mitchell<br /> <br /> Interesting eight book archive from the personal collection of Astronaut and Moonwalker Edgar Mitchell. All books on the subject of psychic exploration which Mitchell was famously involved in. Late in 1973 and early 1974 Mitchell co-founded the Institute for Noetic Science. The Institute conducts research on topics such as spontaneous remission meditation consciousness alternative healing practices consciousness-based healthcare spirituality human potential psychic abilities psychokinesis and survival of consciousness after bodily death. Edgar Mitchell was widely recognized for his public stance on the existence of UFO's and the powers of the mind. He believed that the bridging of science and the power of the human mind represented the key to our discovering the worlds outside our own. The subject of Noetic Science has flourished of late thanks to it's use in Dan Brown's "The Lost Symbol" which was published in 2009. No longer considered "fringe" science by most Mitchell was one of the early believers in the powers of meditation and collective thought. <br /> <br /> Archive Includes:<br /> 1 Gill Joseph - The Great Pyramid Speaks to You Philosophical Library 1984 - SIGNED TO EDGAR MITCHELL BY AUTHOR<br /> 2 Gignous Jane Hughes - Some Folk Say: Stories of Life Death and Beyond FoulktTale Publishing 1998 - SIGNED TO EDGAR MITCHELL BY AUTHOR<br /> 3 Friedman Norman - Bridging Science and Spirtit Living Lake Books 1994 Revised Edition - SIGNED TO EDGAR MITCHELL BY AUTHOR<br /> 4 Mayur Ed.
