- catalog abstract "While hundreds of books have been written about the "New Age," none has analyzed this pervasive and uniquely American phenomenon from a skeptical point of view. Not until Not Necessarily the New Age, that is. In the 18 essays collected here, some of the nation's most daring thinkers take a long, hard look at the beliefs and practices of America's recent spiritualist revival. The essays cover a wide range of subjects- from reincarnation and clairvoyance to trance-channeling and transpersonal psychology.".
