Synopsis:

Excerpt from Metaphysical Phenomena: Methods and Observations

In all this they have been powerfully assisted by Professor Charles Richet, the distinguished physiologist of Paris, whose name and fame are almost as well known in this country as in his own, and who gave the special evening. Lecture to the British Association on the occa sion of its semi-international meeting at Dover in I 899.

In France it so happens that these problems have been attacked chiefly by biologists and medical men, whereas in this country they have attracted the attention chiefly, though not exclusively, of physicists and chemists among men of science. This gives a desirable diversity to the point of view, and adds to the value of the work of the French investigators. Another advantage they possess is that they have no amere-pewée towards religion or the spiritual world. Frankly, I expect they would con fess themselves materialists, and would disclaim all sym pathy with the view of a number of enthusiasts in this country, who have sought to make these ill-understood facts the basis for a kind of religious cult in which faith is regarded as more important than knowledge, and who contemn the attitude of scientific men, even of those few who really seek to observe and understand the phenomena.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book takes a unique approach to exploring the fascinating world of psychical phenomena, an area that has long been shrouded in controversy and skepticism. The author, a lawyer with a medical degree, delves into a range of unusual events that defy conventional scientific explanation, including telekinesis, luminous apparitions, and automatic writing. Throughout the book, the author candidly shares his personal observations and experiences, offering a first-hand glimpse into these often perplexing occurrences. Drawing upon his extensive research, the author challenges traditional perspectives on these phenomena, moving beyond simplistic explanations of fraud or deception. He carefully examines the arguments of both skeptics and those who believe in the spiritual realm, ultimately suggesting that these events may be a manifestation of a force beyond our current understanding of the natural world. The book encourages a reexamination of the boundaries of human consciousness, inviting readers to consider the possibility that we are only beginning to unlock the true potential of the human mind. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Seller Inventory # 9781330012130_0
