From the author's Foreword:
This book describes some of the ways in which human beings raise quesiotns and come up with answers about mysteries in the world. Ours is a fascinating and puzzling universe, something that can cause us great delight as we study it. I hope this book will help you come to appreciate probing the unknown for yourself.
 To help you apply the ideas in this book, I will occasionally suggest ideas to explore. These sections, which will be boxed, are intended to get you Probing On Your Own.
 This book will not even attempt to answer all questions or even most questions, but from time to time you can think about ways in which you could find answers. That's what Probing the Unknown is all about.
Chapters include: 
Legends and Myths 
The Spirit World 
Superstitions and Folkways 
Magic and Illusion 
Reason and Logic
 From Myth To Science 
 Afterword: Future Knowledge
