Objections can bemade to some of the inclusions. Sir ArthurConanDoyle, the creator of SherlockHolmes,was asdogmatic in defending séance phenomena as sceptics often are in criticizing it.[2] The descriptions of personal psiexperiencedbytheSwedishplaywrightAugustStrindbergwouldbeofmoreinteresttoaclinicalpsychologistthantoaparapsychologicalresearcher.Someheldobnoxiousviews:thepioneeringFrenchbiologistAlexisCarrelfavouredNazieugenics,forinstance.Buttakenasawhole,thelistoverwhelminglyshowsthatwomenandmenofgeniusinmanyareasof life–science,thearts,politics, invention–haveshowna livelyandattimesprofessional interest inpsi,andwereirritatedbythosewhotriedtostifleit.

Some figures aimed to integrate psi with larger concerns. This applies to William James, a central figure in bothpsychology and philosophy, who not only participated in psi-research andwrote important papers –most famouslyregardingthemediumLeonoraPiper,whomheconsideredhis“whitecrow”–butsoughttointegratepsiwithinalargerframework. In physics, David Bohm[16] discussed how psi phenomena might be accommodated within his theory ofwholeness and implicate order, while Evans Harris Walker developed a quantum mechanics theory of psi.[17] ThephilosopherHenriBergsonconsideredpsiwithinhislargerdiscussionoftime,consciousness,andevolution.[18]

Psiphenomenahavealsoservedasinspirationforbothtechnologicalandartisticachievements.Amongscientiststhere’stheextraordinarycaseofHansBerger,inspiredbyanexperienceinwhichhissister,seventymilesaway,intuitivelyfelthisbrushwithdeathduring amilitary exercise and immediatelyhad their father sendhima telegram.WhenBerger laterinventedtheelectroencephalogram(EEG),itwaspartlytodiscoverifthemachinemightdetectpsi.[19]

In the category of explicit acceptance can be cited a casual mention by the Russian dissident writer AleksandrSolzhenitsyninhisbookTheGulagArchipelagoofpsiabilitiespossessedbyoneofhisformercellmates:‘Thereisnodoubtthathehadthegiftofprecognition,’Solzhenitsynwrote.‘Morethanoncehewentaroundinthecellinthemorningandpointed:Todaytheyaregoingtocomeforyouandyou.Isawitinmydream.Andtheycameandgotthem.’[26]Thepioneering computer scientist Alan Turing[27] referred to the ‘overwhelming’ statistical evidence for telepathy in alandmarkpaperonartificialintelligence.AdifferentsortofexampleisOttoStern,whowassofearfulofthedamagingpsychokineticeffectsthatfellowphysicistWolfgangPauliseemedtoleaveinhiswakethathebarredPaulifromenteringhislaboratory.
