1.0 out of 5 stars Cheap as in CHEAP, November 16, 2007
This review is from: Paranormal Investigation: Ghost Hunting Using Scientific Methods (Paperback)
I was expecting something with a little more "meat" - this book is described as having 162 pages. Please be aware this is a tiny pocketbook and the text could easily fit on 40 regular-size pages. The amount of content is not worth the price of the book. In all seriousness, I've found more valuable information for free on the Internet.

1.0 out of 5 stars Don't waste your money!, July 12, 2007
This review is from: Paranormal Investigation: Ghost Hunting Using Scientific Methods (Paperback)
This book is self-published which should tell you something. The Grammar and spelling in this book are atrocious. The author claims to have a BA in journalism yet neglected to proof his work. I've been studying the paranormal for the last 28 years and I can honestly say there are many inconsistencies in this book. The book is so bad I'm attempting to get my money back. It's not worth 13 cents let alone $13.99.

1.0 out of 5 stars Amateur, July 10, 2009
This review is from: Paranormal Investigation: Ghost Hunting Using Scientific Methods (Paperback)
The book was fine for an amateur ghost hunter, with zero experience, or a young adult, who would like to get into learning about how to investigate ghosts. My biggest beef, this guy is promoting groups charging to do research for people who may be frightened out of their minds with what is happening in their home. I think he suggested $20 an hour for the team leader and $10 for the other researchers. I don't even remember I closed the book as soon as I saw that he wants to charge. If you want a good paranormal research book, get Vince Wilson's Untimate Ghost Hunter, and for a great paranormal how to guide, Troy Taylor's Ghost Hunters Guidebook. They are both far and away better this this piece of work.
Although, I am a little biased I am an American Ghost Society member.
