description: In the mid-1990s, Atlanta, Georgia-based portrait painter Virginia Adair traveled the world over, interviewing 43 female psychics and healers randomly chosen from 15 countries as far apart as Indonesia and Argentina. Through her interviews with women psychics of various cultures, we learn their life histories, the nature and limitations of their paranormal abilities, and their value systems. Ms. Adair seeks to understand the phenomena from a scientific point of view, citing contemporary scientists and philosophers. She wonders if the growing incidence of female paranormal power signals the start of an evolutionary leap forward.
