The Colin Wilson Library of the Paranormal Series, Volume One. Reprint Edition; Second Printing thus. First published in 1848. Paperback. One of the first serious studies of the supernatural written in the English speaking world. As the author emphatically points out, in Germany this phenomena had been taken very seriously by psychologists and scientists for a long time and had come up with much incontrovertible material. The author argues that we simply cannot dismiss the reality of supernatural and parapsychologist phenomena simply because it cannot at this stage be seen by all or easily measured. This book is filled with fascinating and chilling anecdotes of ghostly events, hauntings and other paranormal phenomena. Crowe points out that the purpose of her book is far more then mere amusement. Too often supernatural and psychical phenomena are dismissed without a fair examination of the facts, which have influenced popular belief of all ages and countries. Crowe makes the point that the cases of supernatural haunting, psychic phenomena , ghosts etc are simply too numerous and too well known in all ages to be set aside so easily. The author would like to familiarize us with the idea that people are spirits incorporated for a time in the flesh but the dissolution of the connection between soul and body, though it changes the external condition of the former, leaves its spiritual state unaltered. The delight of the book is the hundreds of anecdotes recorded of dreams of loved deceased ones or of of impending or current death of a loved one. Crusading spirits writing wrongs, warning spirits averting disaster, inescapable spirits which once uleashed cannot be set to rest. Stories of wraiths, Doppelganger (doubles on oneselves seen by others or oneself) , poltergeists, apparitions, foretastes of the future life etc abound, and often they are recorded in such a way as to ensure us that there is more to it than imagination or coincidence. The meat of the book is in the anecdotes which are intriguing and sometimes chilling to read. An instructive read for anyone who aims to make a serious study of parapsychology and the supernatural. ; 8vo 8" - 9" tall; xii, 451 pages. Seller Inventory # 41413
