J.B. Rhine: Seeker, Scientist, Intellectual with Mitch Horowitz
J B Rhine is known as the father of parapsychological research and a strong voice for the scientific exploration of ESP and the Paranormal. What is his legacy in the field and his influence on science?
Renowned voice of esotericism and award-winning historian and author of "Practical Magick," Mitch Horowitz commemorates the 90th anniversary of the Duke Parapsychology Laboratory and Rhine Research Center with a deep exploration of J.B. Rhine's legacy -- not only as a groundbreaking parapsychologist but also as a visionary intellectual and philosophical figure. In this compelling presentation, Mitch delves into J.B. and Louisa Rhine's spiritual and scientific journey, J.B.'s pioneering research and unfinished work, his relationships with peers, and the lasting example he sets for seekers today. He also reflects on J.B.'s profound influence on his own career and personal path.
