What I’d like to see less of in 2012 | The Not-Quite-So-Friendly Humanist

Tuesday, October 07, 2014. Researchers from the Centre for the Study of Anomalous Psychological Processes (CSAPP) based in the Psychology Division of the University of Northampton are interested in whether people seek support following an anomalous experience.
