completed. Teilhard sought to link the evolution of man with the concept of energy, in this context what he called "psychic energy." Most crucially, as Huxley points out, Teilhard had a conviction of the supreme importance of personality.

"A developed human being, as he rightly pointed out, is not merely a more highly individualized individual," writes Huxley. "He has crossed the threshold of self-consciousness to a new mode of thought, and as a result has achieved some degree of conscious integration - integration of the self with the outer world of men and nature, integration of the separate elements of self with each other. He is a person, an organism which has transcended individuality in personality. This attainment of personality was an essential element in man's past and present evolutionary success: accordingly its fuller achievement must be an essential aim for his evolutionary future."

And so it is that modern science is enveloping some of those ideas which began as religious philosophy, heresy some say, expanding its parameters to include such once alarming ideas as those expressed in Russell Targ and Harold Putl1off's new book, Mind-Reach. This study uses the methodology of contemporary quantum physics, specific qualities of electromagnetic fields, and advances in brain research to prove the existence of "remote viewing." This validation by scientific experiments which can be repeated and revalidated under controlled conditions, gives exciting credibility to the idea that psychic phenomena and paranormal experiences are basic to the reality of all human experience.
