Telepathy - Genuine and Fraudulent - With a Preface by Sir Oliver Lodge

Book excerpt: “Telepathy - Genuine and Fraudulent” is a vintage work on the subject of telepathic transmission by W. W. Baggally. Within it, Baggally looks at obviously fake and potentially real cases of telepathy, explaining how contemporary charlatans fooled their audiences and recounting uncanny instances and cases that could represent actual examples of telepathic communication. This volume will appeal to those with an interest in telepathy and related subjects, and it would make for a fantastic addition to collections of allied literature. Contents include: “Experimental Telepathy”, “Spontaneous Telepathy”, “Telepathy between Human Beings and Animals”, “Fraudulent Telepathy”, “Accounts of Cases”, “Description of Various Methods used by Public Performers for Effecting their So-called Transmission of Thought”, “The Zancigs”, “Public Experiments”, etc. Many vintage books such as this are becoming increasingly scarce and expensive. It is with this in mind that we are republishing this volume now in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition complete with the original text and artwork.
