Terence Hines (born 22 March 1951) is professor of neurology at Pace University and adjunct professor at the New York Medical College〔(Faculty of New York Medical College )〕 and a science writer. Hines has a BA from Duke University, and an MS and PhD from the University of Oregon.〔(Dyson Faculty Profile )〕 Hines, a fellow of the Committee for Skeptical Inquiry, is the author of ''Pseudoscience and the Paranormal'' which focuses on Pseudoscience and the Paranormal within the United States. Hines also, controversially, authored papers expressing scepticism about the existence of the G-Spot. ==Pseudoscience and the Paranormal== Hines is the author of the book ''Pseudoscience and the Paranormal'', which mostly focuses on pseudoscience and the paranormal within the United States.〔 Hines distinguishes pseudoscience from science by describing it as a hypothesis inconsistent with the known laws of physics but which can not be falsified. Hines argues that pseudoscience tends not to be updated in the face of newly obtained evidence, and in the book, Hines highlights the difficulty in clearly demarcating pseudoscience from the paranormal. Hines also writes that if paranormal abilities such as clairvoyance or precognition were possible, then surely one would expect casino and lottery incomes to be affected, although no such effect is observed. Hines is also a fellow of the ''Committee for Skeptical Inquiry''.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.csicop.org/about/csi_fellows_and_staff/ )〕
