Description: "TO KISS EARTH GOOD-BYE is an unusual book. It is Swann's personal testament to his own psychic experiences or,as he prefers, to his experiences with the nonmaterial, but it is also a personal evaluation of the progress of man's mind in the last two-hundred years. At the conclusion, one is left to wonder if, in our preoccupation with progress, we have really progressed at all! Ingo Swann was born in 1933 in Colorado. He was trained as a biologist and worked for some years at the United Nations before shifting his attention and energy to painting and to parapsychology. He has achieved considerable success as an Edgar Mitchell (the Apollo 14 Astronaut) has said of the painting that is reproduced on this jacket, "Ingo Swann portrays in AFT SHIP's VIEW OF SAGITTARIUS a perception of reality that is uniquely his own." In the field of parapsychology, his experiments at the American Society for Psychical Research, at the City College of New York, and at Stanford Research Institute, have been the most significant in recent years."*****From the Foreword by DR. Gertrude "Ingo Swann is a remarkable man. He has extraordinarily strong psychic ability; he is thoughtful; he is fluent. Hearing him speak is a special experience, and this book offers a similar experience to readers......And here is the book he wrote. It is partly autobiography, it tells of his family background and early psychic experiences.....and of his later successes in the laboratory and outside.....Its major theme is one with which I heartily concur.....that psychic phenomena are natural events to be understood in the framework of science. His own words are, 'The path of understanding things psychic has led away from the usual occult, mystical, and even mythic sources.' The book has been read but remains in brand new condition
