The One Who Comes After: Living a Legacy in and out of the Psychic World, by Lisette Coly | spr.ac.uk When Lisette Coly begins her story in May 2004, things have changed. PF conferences had not been arranged since the 1990s and the International Journal of Parapsychology had been discontinued. Coly and the others involved in the PF were preparing to move the offices and the research library. By now she was the President of the PF and had to oversee it all. However, the book is not about the PF. This is Lisette’s story. It is a personal account, and the reader gets to follow her closely.
