3.0

I felt like this was an interesting read from the lens of the book being a product of its time. While this may not be the view of the author himself, it is interesting that a lot of academics of the mid 20th century held that superpowers like telekinesis or the like was a plausible and almost inevitable latent human ability. I'm satisfied at having read it, but wouldn't qualify it as a must read.
