📝 Description: Psi Spies: The True Story of America's Psychic Warfare Program

"In PSI Spies, Jim Marrs has provided the original report on the U. S. Army's use of psychic remote viewing as an intelligence tool." --Whitley Strieber Learn the Truth About Our Military's Psychic Soldiers PSI Spiestakes you behind the scenes of the U. S. Army's formerly top-secret remote viewing unit to see how the military has used this psychic ability as a tool and a weapon. Even though remote viewing was developed by various tax-supported government agencies, including the CIA, most Americans have never heard of this faculty. In the 1970s, with the support of Congress, the Army formed a small unit of remote viewers to spy for America. These soldiers/psychic spies gained penetrating knowledge about a wide variety of subjects. They were consulted to stop a Soviet plot to kill President Ronald Reagan. They mentally prowled the halls of the Kremlin. They probed Iraq's hidden weapons sites in preparation for the 1991 Gulf War. From insights into our future to the continuing mysteries of UFOs and crop circles, no subject has been immune to the military remote viewers--America's Psi Spies. And now, in this book, you can also find tips on how to remote view on your own.

Worth every penny

This edition finally does the material justice. There's real depth here that reveals itself on a second reading. The text itself is dense but rewarding — you get out what you put in. Great value for what you get.

Very good

This edition finally does the material justice. It's become a regular reference in my practice. My only quibble is the cover feels thinner than expected. Still worth having on the shelf.
