Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book examines the 19th-century spiritualist phenomenon known as "table-turning" with a skeptical eye. The author, a distinguished scientist, analyzes the purported manifestations of spirits through table movements, raps, and other sensory phenomena. The author demonstrates how these effects can be attributed to natural causes, primarily the unconscious muscular movements of the participants, a phenomenon known as the ideomotor effect. Further dismissed are claims of supernatural communication and influence and their impact on the broader spiritualist movement. This book's significance lies in its rigorous and methodical approach to debunking the purported supernatural origins of these spiritualist phenomena, offering a valuable perspective on the interplay between belief, perception, and the limits of human understanding.
