Joseph A. Sadony (1907–1960) was an American philosopher and parapsychologist known for his work in human potential and consciousness. Founder of the Institute of Man in 1937, Sadony delved into topics such as extrasensory perception (ESP) and the untapped capabilities of the human mind. His writings and lectures explored unconventional ideas about the mind's potential, making him a notable figure in the field of parapsychology.
