Inhaltsangabe

This book explores the concept of telepathy, presenting evidence from experimental studies conducted by the Society for Psychical Research over more than a century. The author traces the history of the subject, examining how early misconceptions and skepticism have given way to a more scientific approach. The book presents a compelling case for the existence of telepathy, drawing on both anecdotal accounts and rigorous experiments. It examines the various ways in which telepathic communication can manifest, including the transference of thoughts, emotions, and sensory experiences. The author also explores the potential mechanisms underlying telepathy, considering both physical and psychological explanations. Ultimately, the book concludes that telepathy is a real phenomenon that challenges our understanding of the limits of human consciousness and opens up new possibilities for communication and connection.

Excerpt from Apparitions and Thought-Transference: An Examination of the Evidence for Telepathy

1 The book actually bore on the title-page the names of Edmund Gurney, F. W. H. Myers, and the present writer. But the division of authorship, as explained in the Preface, was as follows As regards the writing and the views expressed, Mr. Myers is solely responsible for the Introduction, and for the 'note on a Suggested Mode of Psychical Interaction;' and Mr. Gurney is solely responsible for the remainder of the book. But the collection, examination, and appraisal of evidence has been a joint labour.

Excerpt from Apparitions and Thought-Transference: An Examination of the Evidence for Telepathy

The following pages aim at presenting in brief compass a selection of the evidence upon which the hypothesis of thought-transference, or telepathy, is based. It is now more than twelve years since the Society for Psychical Research was founded, and nearly eight since the publication of Phantasms of the Living. Both in the periodical Proceedings of the Society and in the pages of Edmund Gurney's book, a large mass of evidence has been laid before the public.
