Author Description

First published in 1919, "Contact with the Other World" by James H. Hyslop is a comprehensive treatise on the subject of spiritualism, a religious movement based on the belief that spirits of the deceased exist and are able to communicate with living people. Within this book, the author looks at the evidence for spiritual communication, as well as other related subjects ranging from telepathy to unexplained phenomenon and beyond. Contents include: "Psychic Phenomena in Antiquity", "Modern Spiritualism", "The Societies for Psychical Research", "Preliminary Problems", "The Problem of a Future Life", "The Problems of Evidence", "Human Personality", "Telepathy", "Instances of Telepathy and Similar Phenomenon", "The Process of Communicating", etc. Many vintage books such as this are becoming increasingly scarce and expensive. We are republishing this volume now in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition complete with the original text and artwork.
