'''Extrasensory perception''' ('''ESP'''), also known as a '''sixth sense''', or '''cryptaesthesia''', is a claimed [[paranormal]] ability pertaining to reception of information not gained through the recognized physical [[sense]]s, but sensed with the mind. The term was adopted by [[Duke University]] botanist [[Joseph Banks Rhine|J. B. Rhine]] to denote [[psychic]] [[abilities]] such as [[telepathy]], [[Psychometry (paranormal)|psychometry]], [[clairvoyance]] and their trans-temporal operation as [[precognition]] or [[retrocognition]].[{{cite book|author1=Noel Sheehy|author2=Antony J.
