Here was a medical doctor, soldier, intellect, and world-renowned author, who believed fully in the principles of spiritualism. The spiritualism of that time embraced areas that we refer to today as ESP, New Age philosophy, and metaphysics. It accepted the existence of a soul and afterlife, and it offered an intriguing view of our existence in relationship to a greater being. An original Introduction to the book provides an insightful look at Doyle's personal life. His friendship with magician Harry Houdini is brilliantly captured in the book's original Afterword. |
