The Psychology of Anomalous Experience: A Cognitive Approach (Psychology Series)

In the rich fabric of daily experience peculiar chinks may occur. They give us pause to reflect on the world and how we relate to it. This revised edition of a timeless classic will help you to see the reality of anomalous experience as part of your own psychological tapestry. Dr Reed shows how the mind's organisational capability and its information processing set the stage for strange happenings. Understanding the choices you make - albeit unconsciously - when perceiving the world serves to explain both the usual and the unusual, without recourse to the supernatural.
