The following quote from a review of Entangled Minds by R.T. Carroll speaks volumes of the results of Dr. Radin's work (bold and italics mine):
"Entanglement is a concept from quantum physics that refers to connections between subatomic particles that persist regardless of being separated by various distances. Radin notes that some physicists have speculated that the entire universe might be entangled and that some Eastern mystics might have been on to something cosmic. His speculations are rather wild, but his assertions are rather modest. For example: "I believe that entanglement suggests a scenario that may ultimately lead to a vastly improved understanding of psi" (p. 14, italics added) and "I propose that the fabric of reality is comprised [sic] of 'entangled threads' that are consistent with the core of psi experience" (p. 19)."
The way I read that is essentially, he hasn't found anything to prove the existance of psi. Yet.
Since I get so many book suggestions thrown at me, would you read my suggestions if I proposed them?

And concerning the Ganzfeld experiments:
"More recently, Julie Milton (University of Edinburgh) and Richard Wiseman (University of Hertfordshire) did a follow-up meta-analysis on 30 new studies not included in the Bem and Honorton analysis. Scott Lilienfeld reports in one of those CSICOP articles (Skeptical Inquirer, November 1999, www.csicop.org/si/9911/lilienfeld.html) that those findings "stand in stark contrast to those of Bem and Honorton and raise serious questions concerning the replicability of the ganzfeld findings." In science, replicability is essential. If other scientists can't reproduce your results, chances are they may have been due to some flaw in the experiment rather than a real effect. Milton and Wiseman found a result "which corresponds to essentially chance performance and can most charitably be described as negligible."
