The authors and the titles of their papers are as follows: Alan Gauld, "ESP and Attempts to Explain It"; Bob Brier, "The Metaphysics of Precognition"; David E. Cooper, "ESP and the Materialist Theory of Mind"; Antony Flew, "The Sources of Serialism"; Jonathan Harrison, "Religion and Psychical Research"; Pamela M. Huby, "Some Aspects of the Problem of Survival"; Hywel D. Lewis, "Religion and the Paranormal"; C.W.K.
