Survival of Man

Survival of Man: A Study in Unrecognized Human Faculty is a book written by Sir Oliver Lodge. The book explores the possibility of human survival after death and the existence of paranormal phenomena. Lodge presents evidence from his own experiences and experiments, as well as from other researchers, to support his theories. He discusses topics such as telepathy, clairvoyance, and mediumship, and examines the implications of these phenomena for the survival of the human soul. Lodge also explores the relationship between science and spirituality, arguing that they are not mutually exclusive. The book is a thought-provoking and insightful exploration of the mysteries of human consciousness and the afterlife.1909. The author gives an account of many of his investigations into matters connected with psychical research during the last quarter of a century, with an abridgment of contemporary records. The author's conviction of man's survival of bodily death-a conviction based on a large range of natural facts-is well known; and in this volume some idea can be gained as to the most direct and immediate kind of foundation on which in the future he considers that this belief will in due course be scientifically established. The book is divided into four sections entitled: aims and objects of psychical research; experimental telepathy or thought transference; spontaneous telepathy and clairvoyance; and automatism and lucidity.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
