Mind Magic

Since her first book, Mind to Mind, was published in 1989, Betty Shine has been inundated with letters of thanks and appreciation. Her extraordinary message has touched hearts and changed lives the world over. As her reputation has grown, it has become impossible for Betty to treat personally the thousands of people who look to her for help. So it is as a natural extension of her talks, lectures and private consultations that she has written Mind Magic, a self-help guide that will enable everyone to experience the benefits of mind energy and healing - for themselves and for the good of others. At the core of Mind Magic is a series of exercises and projects devised, tried and tested by Betty herself. Though all have been designed to develop the imagination and renew mind energy, each has an additional specific aim, ranging from stress management to memory enhancement. Built around these disciplines is a mass of practical advice on vitamin and mineral intake, colour therapy, the power of positive thinking and a host of other topics. A handbook for the soul, a guide to health and happiness, a manual for living in the modern world, Mind Magic is a valuable and singular contribution to New Age literature.

Reviews

'I am quite convinced that she has certain remarkable powers'

—— Val Hennessy , Mail on Sunday

One of the best books on psychic development I have seen in a long time

—— Predicition

Storr interviews everyone from mediums to monsterologists and recounts the lot in a simple, yet evocative style that makes this book hard to put down, even if you don't believe in the paranormal

—— Big Issue

A very amusing way to scare yourself stupid

—— Independent on Sunday

This award-winning writer is at the vanguard of the new British journalism. A taut, fascinating and funny book

—— Herald Sun (Australia)

Britain has over 500-years' worth of ghost stories in the cupboard and in The Natural History of Ghosts, Roger Clarke makes them dance ... the most original and readable book exploring our ghost-rich culture to appear for years ... fascinating

—— Fortean Times

Clarke's examination of the need people have to believe remains insightful and illuminating throughout

—— Observer

An intriguing, shivers-down-the-spine book

—— The Lady

Lively and absorbing ... [Clarke] has proven himself an ideal guide to this troubled and disorderly realm

—— Literary Review

A fascinating social history ... exceptionally well written and researched

—— Starburst Magazine

Why do ghosts wear clothes? This is just one of a number of interesting questions raised by this jaunty book ... In a series of short, snappy chapters, Clarke examines the evidence for just about every ghost who ever drew, or withdrew, breath ... but A Natural History of Ghosts is also haunted by another story, lurking not very far beneath: the story of the author's childhood need to believe in ghosts, and the gradual erosion of that belief

—— Craig Brown , Daily Mail

A gripping history that traces the scientific and social aspects of ghostly sightings

—— Telegraph

Compelling ... Research into the paranormal necessarily involves a fair degree of debunking, and Clarke is careful to be sceptical. The narrative of ghost-hunting is simultaneously a history and exposure of fraud and popular delusion ... [yet] Clarke retains a boyish and ... well-informed enthusiasm for his subject

—— Independent

[A] voyage through the half-lit world of lost souls ... tales told with ghoulish relish

—— Telegraph
