InPresence host, Jeffrey Mishlove, PhD, is author of The Roots of Consciousness, Psi Development Systems, and The PK Man. Between 1986 and 2002 he hosted and co-produced the original Thinking Allowed public television series. He is the recipient of the only doctoral diploma in “parapsychology” ever awarded by an accredited university (University of California, Berkeley, 1980). For many years he served as president of the non-profit Intuition Network, an organization dedicated to creating a world in which all people were supported and encouraged in developing inner intuitive abilities.

Here Jeff focuses on efforts to replicate some of the unusual macro-psychokinetic phenomena that were reported in nineteenth century spiritualist seances. In England, Kenneth Batcheldor developed a method for achieving table levitations. He incorporated a seance-like atmosphnere — but with neither the solemnity of a religious service nor any spiritualist mediums. In Toronto, Canada, the local Society for Psychical Research expanded on Batcheldor’s work — by successfully creating an imaginary ghost they named Philip.
