Michael Marshall: Ongoing adventures in the world of pseudoscience
For almost 20 years, Michael Marshall had been investigating those who claim to have psychic powers. He has had his palm read by suspect psychics in Blackpool, gone undercover to report from mediumship shows and spiritualist readings, and scientifically tested the ability to talk to the dead. Here he will tell tales of what happens when you begin to crack the surface of the pseudosciences that surround us – revealing the surprising, sometimes-shocking and often-comic adventures that lie beneath.
