Watson, a polymath with a doctorate in ethology and degrees in botany, zoology, and anthropology, uses an interdisciplinary approach to explain phenomena such as telepathy, psychokinesis, and synchronicity through biological and scientific frameworks.

The book introduces the concept of the "supernatural," a field that transcends traditional science but is not entirely paranormal. Watson analyzes cases such as plants responding to stimuli (e.g., the scream of a shrimp in boiling water) and connections between human and animal consciousness, such as cases of identical twins feeling emotions from a distance. He also explores the "hundredth monkey effect," a metaphor for collective consciousness that he later acknowledged as his own construct.

Through examples from nature, Watson suggests that science has yet to explain all the mysteries of the world, urging an openness to the unknown. His style combines scientific rigor with wonder, making the book appealing to skeptics and enthusiasts alike. Supernatural inspires readers to question the limits of reality and embrace the complexity of nature, leaving a lasting impact on popular science and spirituality.
