Much has been learned about the odd effects of the un- conscious nature of ESP. In fact, some of the most revealing discoveries have sprung from this feature, which had little more than come to our attention when the first book was written. Now our knowledge of this lack of conscious control explains a lot of otherwise puzzling effects of psi (i.e. parapsychical) ability. Among these are unconscious missing (psi missing), displacement (hitting adjacent targets) and the various decline effects.
The work on ESP in animals, both through the collection of spontaneous or natural cases and experimental work, is new—too new, even, to have been covered in The Reach of the Mind. But it is reviewed in New World of the Mind, and the reports appear in The Journal of Parapsychology.
