About the Book
In Supernature: A Natural History of the Supernatural, Lyall Watson takes readers on a fascinating journey into the hidden forces of life and mind. First published in 1973, this groundbreaking work argues that what we call “supernatural” is not beyond nature — it is simply nature we don’t yet understand.
With insight and imagination, Watson explores:
Telepathy, ESP, and psychokinesis
Animal instincts and plant intelligence
Energy fields, consciousness, and intuition
The potential of science to explain mystical experience
Blending biology, anthropology, physics, and philosophy, Supernature reveals a living universe full of unseen connections. Decades after its release, it remains one of the most influential books ever written on science’s mystical frontier.
