Psychical Phenomena and the War

by Hereward Carrington

About this book

Hereward Carrington examines reports of psychical experiences associated with the First World War. The book brings experiences of dreams, impressions and unusual occurrences into a discussion of wartime life and the questions they raised for psychical research.

Carrington connects individual reports with broader problems of interpretation and evidence. The setting of the war supplies a common thread through material concerned with consciousness, communication and survival, while the author’s arguments place those reports within his approach to the subject.

The 1918 edition is preserved as an original-page scan. Readers can follow the historical accounts, examples and supporting discussion in the form in which the book was published.
