There are a number of mysteries in the universe. This book explores the nature of synchronicity and precognition. Synchronicity involves seemingly unusual coincidences.

Encino, CA, USA., April 04, 2022 - In “Synchronicity and Precognition: Science or Fiction,” the author examines whether there is a scientific or realistic basis to these paranormal phenomena.Is Synchronicity and Precognition Real or an illusion, is the key question discussed in the new book. Donald A. Eisner, Ph.D. J.D. evaluated the studies and came to several startling conclusions.

“As it turns out, many of the experiments cannot stand up to close scrutiny. For example, the controversial series of studies by Daryl Bem reported in 2011, does not offer substantial evidence that people can detect the future or that retrocausation exists. But there are a few in the physiological arena that are very tantalizing.”

There are a number of mysteries in the universe. This book explores the nature of synchronicity and precognition. Synchronicity involves seemingly unusual coincidences. As an example, if one is thinking about calling a person, and then out of the blue they call. However, there is an element of precognition as well, it’s as if they almost knew or had a predictive hunch the person would call.

In this book, the recent studies on precognition and evaluated. Does the research meet the scientific test as to the reality of precognition? There are many methodical pitfalls in most of the studies. There are only that seem to suggest the possibility precognition.

There are a number of explanations for precognition including quantum physics, brain to brain transfer, the Mandela Effect and the multiverse. Eisner explains that synchroneity actually happens but there no viable explanation for why it occurs. With precognition adequate explanations may not happen for decades or centuries.


About Donald Eisner

I am a licensed psychologist and attorney. I am interested in parapsychology including synchronicity and precognition. I started writing science fiction several years ago. In 2018, I wrote “2034 to 1990: Into the Multiverse.” Because of an existential crisis due to heat from the sun’s corona, a psychologist agreed to be projected back to 1990 where it hopefully would be safe. Unfortunately a Covid-19 pandemic emerged. But enough about that story. My range is vast; some stories are funny, and others a bit satirical. If you like the Hallmark Channel, you will enjoy the Hillmark Stories. That is where a dog assists with her owner’s romantic issues, and another is where Christmas day is repeated. One of the uplifting fantasies covers a spirit guide. So take your pick, you will like at least one of the science fiction and fantasy scenarios.
