Théodore Flournoy examines mediumship and spirit communications through questions about memory, personality and the unconscious mind. Hereward Carrington translated and abridged the work for this English edition and supplied its introduction.
The chapters discuss messages attributed to spirits, claims of identity, mediumistic writing, Myers’s ideas about the subliminal mind and experiments involving Eusapia Palladino. Flournoy develops psychological interpretations of the cases and distinguishes philosophical spiritualism from the claim that particular phenomena are produced by spirits. This is the complete illustrated English volume published by Harper & Brothers in October 1911, including its appendix and index.
