Description

In 1921, when the second edition of Der Okkultismus Im Modernen Weltbild was translated from German, the explanation for phenomena so strange in nature, so mysterious, was deeply sought by the scientific community. Occult concepts which are in clear contradiction of science have always existed. Only so long as telepathy, clairvoyance and materialization appear as something out of the ordinary are they surrounded by an aura of mystery. Occultism and Modern Science offers investigations into show more the domains of Spiritualism and parapsychology through an examination of classic cases of purported mediums and the conflicting revelations of the Theosophical movement. The book ends with a scope for further investigations of the findings and will provoke much thought in readers seeking answers. show less
