Spiritualiteit
As to whether communication with the departed is possible, no discussion is here attempted. The episodes following, from experiences well authenticated, merely illustrate what sleight-of-hand experts have long known—that most “mediums, ” “astrologers, ” “mind readers, ” and the like, can be proven to be frauds. Their dupes are puzzled, and sometimes won over, in the name of Spiritualism, either by the tricks familiar to all “conjurers, ” or else by the psychology of deception. Some of the cleverness displayed is marvelous, as the following pages show. Included are chapters on "The Methods of a Doctor of the Occult, " "The Name of the Dead, " "Mind Reading in Public, " and "Some Famous Exposures."
