Review of Contact with the Future
[Following is an official OnlineBookClub.org review of "Contact with the Future" by Jon Taylor.]
Title: CONTACT WITH THE FUTURE
Author: Jon Taylor
In this extensive and compelling book, Jon Taylor presents a convincing case for the reality of extra-sensory perception (ESP). He draws on a wealth of well-researched studies and experiments, many of which are rooted in scientific principles like quantum mechanics, to provide compelling evidence. Over the past few decades, there has been a notable shift in societal attitudes, with even governments now entertaining ideas that were once dismissed as incredible, such as the UFO phenomenon, the paranormal, and the ability to predict the future. Taylor's book is a timely exploration of these shifting attitudes.
He approaches this subject from all angles, and it is immensely interesting, if not quite heavy-going. Highly qualified scientists and psychologists have been delving deep into the possibilities of the minds of humans and animals.
He writes about different types of abilities, such as dreams, pre-recognition, intuition, extra-sensory prediction, telepathy, etc., although he frowns on the notion of clairvoyance.
The book offers a wealth of information about this controversial and progressive subject. It's not a light read, but that's because Taylor doesn't shy away from the complexities of his subject. His ideas are not new: The Society for Physical Research was founded in 1882 in London and was dedicated to studying parapsychology. This book will certainly leave you with plenty to ponder.
I particularly enjoyed Albert Einstein's quote: 'I think 99 times and find nothing. I stop thinking, swim in silence, and the truth comes to me.' This quote may apply to all of us!
Yes, the book is chock-a-block with scientific research, names, dates, scientific terminology, etc., and can be quite tedious to read. However, it is a relatively niche book and would suit those interested in the mind and the possibilities of prediction.
I found no grammatical errors, profanity, or erotica. Because it offers a wealth of well-researched and detailed information, and his enthusiasm is palpable, I will award five out of five stars. Although it wasn't my usual type of read, I did not dislike it and admire his honesty.

I don’t find the subject matter interesting, but that is not to say others won’t really enjoy it. As you say, it is a niche book. I’m glad that there were no errors and no objectionable material. Thanks!
