Jules Du Potet de Sennevoy presents magic as the operation of a force that he associates with animal magnetism and the powers of the human will. He combines accounts of experiments and unusual experiences with his interpretation of ancient magical traditions.
The French-language discussion considers the relation of this proposed force to sensation, thought, illness, healing and the influence of one person upon another. Arguments about the limits of conventional scientific explanation run alongside descriptions of demonstrations and their effects. This is the complete 1907 fourth edition of a work first published in 1852, retaining the original pages and illustrations.
