It examines psychic phenomena and UFOs and explains why they are so problematical for science. This book draws upon theories of the trickster from anthropology, folklore, sociology, semiotics, and literary criticism. The trickster governs paradox and the irrational, but his messages are concealed. But they become coherent after pondering the trickster figure, an archaic being found worldwide in mythology and folklore. These facts present a deeply puzzling situation. In fact, a panoply of scientists now aggressively denounces them. No university departments are devoted to studying psychic phenomena. Yet they have a marginal place in modern culture.

Paranormal phenomena are frequently portrayed in the world’s greatest art and literature, as well as in popular TV shows and movies. They have fostered history’s most important cultural transformations (e.g., via the miracles of Moses, Jesus, Mohammed). Paranormal and supernatural events have been reported for millennia.
