Books@Stones event: Telepathy - Our Lost Sense by Dr Dianne Cartwright

Join us at Books@Stones on Saturday 20 February 2027 (2:00pm) for an event with Dr Dianne Cartwright discussing her book, Telepathy - Our Lost Sense

Telepathy — Our Lost Sense tells the story of how we communicate with another person by sending or receiving a ‘thought message’.

Many people have telepathic abilities but there has been great fear, misunderstanding, and persecution of such people over the centuries leading to the loss of this sense from our human repertoire. Modern neuroscience has revealed that our electrical and magnetic brainwaves carry information within our brain generating thoughts and actions. ELF waves — very low frequence electromagnetic radiation — envelop our planet. They are identical to our brainwaves and can carry our thoughts from one mind to another. We recognise the person sending the thought through their unique ‘brain fingerprint’.

From her late teens onwards, Dr Cartwright had infrequent but fascinating and unforgettable experiences in the realm of extrasensory perception, including telepathy or mind-to-mind communication with another person. Over the years, during chats with friends, she discovered that many of them had had similar experiences. The big question for Dianne was ‘how many people have these experiences and abilities?’.

Dr Cartwright surveyed her patients. She was astonished to find that almost half of the survey group had a personal ESP story indicating that telepathy and ESP are common, and a natural part of being human. She has spent many happy and intriguing hours researching these topics during her retirement and is pleased to have found a plausible explanation to share with all those interested in, and puzzled by, our lost sense – telepathy.

As Marie Curie said 'Nothing in life is to be feared, it is only to be understood. Now is the time to understand more, so that we may fear less.'

Dr. Dianne Cartwright holds a Bachelor of Science (Hons) and MBBS Hons from the University of Queensland and is a Fellow of the Royal Australian College of General Practitioners (FRACGP). After initially studying biology and conducting postgraduate research, she later graduated in medicine and practiced as a GP in Cairns. Throughout her life, Dr. Cartwright has experienced Extrasensory Perception (ESP) and telepathy. After surveying her patients, she discovered that nearly half had personal ESP stories. Now retired, she has found a plausible explanation for these abilities, which she shares in this book sharing her findings with others.
