Disappearing Object Phenomenon

Have you ever had your car keys or television remote control inexplicably vanish from under your nose, only to reappear months later in another part of the house for no evident reason? Most would dismiss it as absent-mindedness, with perhaps a joking remark about paranormal activity. Yet remarkable circumstances surrounding many such accounts suggest that the mysterious disappearance of objects could be more than "just one of those things."

Examining a large selection of fascinating narratives, this book reviews the "disappearing object phenomenon" (DOP) from a scientific standpoint. Both skeptical and supportive perspectives on DOP are considered, leading to the conclusion that disappearing, appearing and reappearing objects are indicators of a controversial take on the nature of reality.

“"The author analyses nearly four hundred cases of disappearing object phenomenon acquired through his own research and through web-based case studies. The individual cases themselves are captivating to read; they ignite the imagination and, but for the most ardent sceptic, entice one to attribute mystery and meaning to the phenomenon." -Vladimir Dubaj, Australian Journal of Parapsychology”
