Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book sheds light on the historical 1885 Seybert Commission's investigation of spiritualist medium Pierre Keeler. The author, a self-described spiritualist, debunks the Commission's accusations that Keeler's spiritualist performances, which ranged from musical instruments playing on their own to writings appearing out of nowhere, were fraudulent. The author provides detailed accounts of these phenomena, arguing that they cannot be explained as simple illusions or tricks. Moreover, the author challenges the Commission's scientific methodology, claiming they made no serious attempt to impartially investigate the claims of spiritualism. In contrast, the author's methodology was one of rigorous observation and careful documentation of the phenomena, leading him to conclude that the Commission's negative findings were based on prejudice and a lack of understanding of spiritualist beliefs and practices. Ultimately, this book challenges the skepticism and prejudice toward spiritualism present in both the scientific and general public of the time, and provides a unique perspective on the ongoing debate about the validity of spiritualist phenomena.
