About This Book

The author surveys alleged physical manifestations recorded by psychical research, presenting organized chapters on the movement of objects, production of sounds and light, table phenomena observed with prominent mediums, the divining rod, thought-transference drawings, materializations, and spirit photography. Evidence is drawn from contemporary investigators and illustrative cases, accompanied by facsimiles of automatic writing and drawings. The work emphasizes careful observation, the difficulty of reproducing phenomena under controlled conditions, and invites cautious experimental inquiry while summarizing reported facts and possible implications for the relation between mind and matter.
