CIA-Initiated Remote Viewing Program at Stanford Research Institute

H. E. Puthoff, Institute for Advanced Studies at Austin, 4030 Braker Lane W., Ste. 300, Austin, TX 78759

Presented here by the program's Founder and first Director (1972–1985) is the early history of the program, including discussion of some of the first, now declassified, results that drove early interest.
