The result was Controlled Remote Viewing (CRV): a structured, trainable protocol that became the backbone of all remote viewing practice today. \u003cem\u003eThe Foundations of Controlled Remote Viewing\u003c\/em\u003e is the definitive compendium of that legacy — an authoritative collection of foundational documents, firsthand accounts, and essential theory that places the origins of CRV in their full human and historical context.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003eWhether you are new to the field or have practiced for years, this 314-page volume fills a gap that has long hampered serious students: access to the source material. Too many remote viewers have learned the protocols without understanding where they came from, why they work, or what problems they were designed to solve. This book changes that, bringing together history, personalities, and method in one place — told largely through the voices of the people who were actually there. With a foreword by Harold E. Puthoff, Ph.D. — co-founder of the original CIA and DoD-sponsored program at SRI-International — \u003cem\u003eFoundations\u003c\/em\u003e carries the weight of living history and the clarity of those who built the field from the ground up.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr class=\"border-border-200 border-t-0.5 my-3 mx-1.5\"\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Contributors\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePaul H. Smith, Ph.D.\u003c\/strong\u003e is a retired U.S. Army Major and one of the longest-serving members of the military's classified remote viewing program at Fort Meade, where he was personally trained in Controlled Remote Viewing by Ingo Swann in 1984. He served as the primary author of the program's official CRV training manual and as theory instructor for new trainees, logging over a thousand operational and training sessions during his tenure. After retiring from the Army, he founded Remote Viewing Instructional Services, Inc. and co-founded the International Remote Viewing Association, and holds a PhD in philosophy of mind and consciousness from the University of Texas at Austin. His book \u003cem\u003eReading the Enemy's Mind\u003c\/em\u003e was an Editors' Choice selection for Reader's Digest.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTom McNear\u003c\/strong\u003e is a retired U.S. Army Lieutenant Colonel and the first military viewer personally trained in Controlled Remote Viewing by Ingo Swann — and the only student Swann trained all the way through Stage VII, earning Swann's designation as his true protégé and \"the formal prototype for the CRV-trained military remote viewer.\" A member of the STAR GATE program from 1981 to 1985, he wrote the first CRV manual, \u003cem\u003eCoordinate Remote Viewing Stages I–VI and Beyond\u003c\/em\u003e, which became the basis for the Defense Intelligence Agency's own published manual a year later. After a 45-year career spanning uniformed service, counterintelligence, and civilian intelligence work, McNear remains one of the most historically significant figures in the entire history of the remote viewing program.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eJana Rogge\u003c\/strong\u003e is a German researcher, author, and operational remote viewer who serves as President of the Center Lane Project and Senior Advisor to MK Advisors, where she leads R\u0026amp;D on remote viewing and ESP applications with global defense and intelligence affiliations. Trained in CRV, ERV, and TRV under an elite roster of teachers — including Paul H.
