The Academy of Spirituality and Paranormal Studies, Inc. sponsors an annual conference at which academically significant presentations are given that combine aspects of both psychical research and religion.
In past years the Academy has also sponsored a Robert H. Ashby Memorial Award competition that offered a $500 cash prize for the best paper on an announced subject. In each case, the winning paper was presented at the annual conference.
Most of these presentations have been recorded on cassette tapes. Please use the Recordings order form page to purchase any that may interest you.
Use the Proceedings order form if you would like to obtain copies, subject to availability, of the published Proceedings for any of the past conferences.
