The doctor—and bestselling author—who first demonstrated
the healing effects of prayer now offers an unprecedented
look at the science of premonitions. When Larry Dossey was in his first year of medical
practice, he experienced a week of premonitions about
patients, all of which came true. He had never had them
before; they seemed to have come out of left field. After
the sensations stopped, writes Dossey in The Power of
Premonitions, “It was as if the universe, having delivered
a message, hung up the phone. It was now my job to make
sense of it—which I try to do in this book.” The four parts of The Power of Premonitions take readers
through documented cases of premonitions, including a
remarkable instance when an entire Nebraska community
skipped church the very day it exploded; an examination of
recent science studying what is known as “presentiment”; a
discussion of what it all means to daily life; and
practical, field-tested techniques for inviting
premonitions. Just as he did in Healing Words, the groundbreaking book
that propelled Dossey into the public consciousness, in
this compelling new book Dossey uses cutting-edge science
to prove the value of what had long been considered
spiritual mumbo-jumbo. This is a book for the skeptical
mind, but it’s also for the believer’s heart—because its
author possesses the rare gift of having both.
