Telepathy, Genuine and Fraudulent

by W. W. Baggally

About this book

W. W. Baggally describes investigations into thought transference and the techniques used to imitate it. Drawing on his work with the Society for Psychical Research, he separates experimental and spontaneous experiences from performances that rely on concealed signals or other methods.

Three sections discuss cases Baggally regarded as genuine, examples of fraudulent telepathy and investigations of the performers Julius and Agnes Zancig. Diagrams and accounts of tests accompany his explanations. Sir Oliver Lodge contributes a prefatory note. The download preserves the illustrated 1918 Chicago edition published by the Marlowe Company.
