A serious look at the Occult and its influence on politics, science, art, and various other movements. Author James Webb proves that it is not that strange that famous and groundbreaking individuals have dabbled in the Occult, as it takes a person with a different type of worldview to change the world. For example, Jack Parsons was an American rocket propulsion researcher as well as a leading member of the Occult organization the OTO. The influence of the Occult on psychoanalysis is also discussed in depth in "The Occult Establishment." The Occult influences (as well as background differences) of Sigmund Freud and C.G. Jung provide insight into why the two men eventually went different ways. "The Occult Establishment" is a serious and scholarly researched look at the Occult.

Just when it seemed that Science and Reason had scored their greatest triumphs, the mid-nineteenth century witnessed an astonishing rebirth of occultism and anit-rationalism: the beginnings of the movement we now call New Age. A secret tradition of knowledge rejected by the Christian or Scientific establishments suddenly became emboldened to seek publicity and converts.
James Webb’s painstaking research carry him into the undergrowth inhabited by such illuminated personages as Madame Blavatsky, the Reverend Leadbeater, the Bortherhood of Luxor, Annie Besant, Krishnamurti, Swami Vivekananda, Spiritualists, Rosicrucians, Vegetarians, Mithraic cults, and all manner of occult propagandists.
"fascinating detail . . . particularly good in tracing the obscure and subterranean spiritual affiliations through which these pilgrims of eternity were bound together . . . as relevant to our own time as it is to the nineteenth century." --Goronwy Rees, ENCOUNTER

UFO CONTACT AT PASCAGOULA On the night of October 11, 1973, two very frightened Mississisppians, Charles Hickson and Calvin Parker, presented themselves at the Jackson County Sheriff’s Department and related a tale almost too incredible to tell. As a matter of fact, their first impulse had been to tell no one for fear they would be thought crazy. But it also occurred to them that what they had just suffered might by the prelude to a full-scale invasion of their country! Many of us read about it bon the front page of our morning newspaper. Some heard about it on the TV news that first day after the incident: “Pascagoula, Mississippi, two men claim that while fishing in a local river last night they were abducted and taken aboard a UFO by three alien creatures!” Within 36 hours of the incident Dr. J. Allen Hynek, the world’s foremost UFO expert, was in Pascagoula to interview the men. Before he left the next day he told the press that the men were, “Absolutely honest. They have had a fantastic experience.” Fantastic indeed! Could it be true? Could these men actually have come in contact with non-human creatures from somewhere ‘out there’? Who were these men? Charles Hickson and Calvin Parker? Why should we believe them? Have they been checked for mental stability? What do their friends and relatives think about all of this? Have either of these men ever been involved in other bizarre incidents? Questions, questions and more questions. Now, at last, the answers are available. Several years ago, William Mendez, a mid-western college professor, began to investigate this most celebrated UFO abduction case. Mendez has spent years getting to know the men, Charles Hickson and Calvin parker. He has made many trips to Mississippi and spent much time interviewing friends, co-workers and the families of the two men. Time-the passage of time-has a way of revealing fraud and deception. What have the intervening years taught us about what happened that October night in Pascagoula? First published in 1983 by Wendelle Stevens. Republished in 2017 by FLYING DISK PRESS.

The Body Electric: Electromagnetism And The Foundation Of Life
The Body Electric tells the fascinating story of our bioelectric selves. Robert O. Becker, a pioneer in the filed of regeneration and its relationship to electrical currents in living things, challenges the established mechanistic understanding of the body. He found clues to the healing process in the long-discarded theory that electricity is vital to life. But as exciting as Becker's discoveries are, pointing to the day when human limbs, spinal cords, and organs may be regenerated after they have been damaged, equally fascinating is the story of Becker's struggle to do such original work. The Body Electric explores new pathways in our understanding of evolution, acupuncture, psychic phenomena, and healing.

In this “informative and delightful” (American Scientist) biography, Margaret Cheney explores the brilliant and prescient mind of Nikola Tesla, one of the twentieth century’s greatest scientists and inventors.
In Tesla: Man Out of Time, Margaret Cheney explores the brilliant and prescient mind of one of the twentieth century's greatest scientists and inventors. Called a madman by his enemies, a genius by others, and an enigma by nearly everyone, Nikola Tesla was, without a doubt, a trailblazing inventor who created astonishing, sometimes world-transforming devices that were virtually without theoretical precedent. Tesla not only discovered the rotating magnetic field -- the basis of most alternating-current machinery -- but also introduced us to the fundamentals of robotics, computers, and missile science. Almost supernaturally gifted, unfailingly flamboyant and neurotic, Tesla was troubled by an array of compulsions and phobias and was fond of extravagant, visionary experimentations. He was also a popular man-about-town, admired by men as diverse as Mark Twain and George Westinghouse, and adored by scores of society beauties.
From Tesla's childhood in Yugoslavia to his death in New York in the 1940s, Cheney paints a compelling human portrait and chronicles a lifetime of discoveries that radically altered -- and continue to alter -- the world in which we live. Tesla: Man Out of Time is an in-depth look at the seminal accomplishments of a scientific wizard and a thoughtful examination of the obsessions and eccentricities of the man behind the science.
About the Author

In addition to her two major studies of Tesla (most recently Tesla: Master of Lightning, with Robert Uth), she has written Midnight at Mabel's, a biography of the great cabaret singer and song stylist Mabel Mercer.
