My aim for the book was to have it exist. My book "BEYOND SENSES" comprises some of my beloved poems relatable to all ages. My poems are the rhythmical creation of beauty. Poetry is thoughts that breathe and words that burn. Poetry is created when an emotion has found its thought, and the thought has found its words. I hope you will cherish this handy-sized book close to my heart, my first poetry collection everybody can easily relate to. I write what I felt; thought; experienced. "With me, poetry has not been a purpose but a passion." ~ Allan Poe

This is the biography of the famed twentieth-century psychic, Eileen J. Garrett, written by her long-time colleague and friend Allan Angoff. Spanning an association of over twenty-five years, Angoff tells both the public and private story of a remarkable woman with psychic gifts. These gifts led her from a young girl in Ireland grappling with the burden of psychic visions, to the global stage and the founding of the Parapsychology Foundation in l951, a worldwide forum supporting scientific exploration of psychic phenomena. This is an absorbing account of her work and associations with many international notables, including, Aldous Huxley, Arthur Conan Doyle, and Dr. J.B. Rhine, as she sought to make sense of psychic functioning for herself and humankind. Eileen Garrett was a woman ahead of her time and comfortable in a world beyond the senses.

During the last half of the eighteenth century, sensibility and its less celebrated corollary sense were subject to constant variation, critique, and contestation in ways that raise profound questions about the formation of moral identities and communities. Beyond Sense and Sensibility addresses those questions. What authority does reason retain as a moral faculty in an age of sensibility? How reliable or desirable is feeling as a moral guide or a test of character? How does such a focus contribute to moral isolation and elitism or, conversely, social connectedness and inclusion? How can we distinguish between that connectedness and a disciplinary socialization? How do insensible processes contribute to our moral formation and action? What alternatives lie beyond the anthropomorphism implied by sense and sensibility? Drawing extensively on philosophical thought from the eighteenth century as well as conceptual frameworks developed in the twenty-first century, this volume of essays examines moral formation represented in or implicitly produced by a range of texts, including Boswell’s literary criticism, Fergusson’s poetry, Burney’s novels, Doddridge’s biography, Smollett’s novels, Charlotte Smith’s children’s books, Johnson’s essays, Gibbon’s history, and Wordsworth’s poetry. The distinctive conceptual and textual breadth of Beyond Sense and Sensibility yields a rich reassessment and augmentation of the two perspectives summarized by the terms sense and sensibility in later eighteenth-century Britain.
