SHORT-TITLE CATALOGUE OF WORKS ON PSYCHICAL RESEARCH, SPIRITUALISM, MAGIC, PSYCHOLOGY, LEGERDEMAIN AND OTHER METHODS OF DECEPTION, CHARLATANISM, WITCHCRAFT, AND TECHNICAL WORKS FOR THE SCIENTIFIC INVESTIGATION OF ALLEGED ABNORMAL PHENOMENA FROM Circa 1450 A.D. TO 1929 A.D. - Introduction: "The main purpose of the National Laboratory of Psychical Research is to assist the serious investigator in detecting the psychic imposter, at the same time enabling him to recognise a genuine phenomenon if and when he sees it." Compiled by Harry Price and issued by the National Laboratory of Psychical Research in London in 1929, this volume (Vol I, Part II - April 1929) serves as a substantial bibliographic reference work devoted to the study of psychical research and related subjects. Rather than presenting original investigations, the book functions as a catalog of literature spanning nearly five centuries, covering works published from approximately 1450 through 1929. Its purpose is to provide scholars, investigators, and researchers with a structured guide to publications concerning psychic phenomena, spiritualism, magic, psychology, witchcraft, charlatanism, deception, and other alleged abnormal manifestations. The catalog brings together books, pamphlets, and technical works relevant to the scientific examination of extraordinary claims and supernatural beliefs. By assembling references across multiple disciplines, it reveals how ideas concerning occult practices, mediumship, telepathy, apparitions, and other unexplained phenomena developed over time. The work also documents writings by skeptics, magicians, investigators, and scientific critics whose studies sought to expose fraudulent methods or provide rational explanations for purported paranormal events. An important aspect of the volume is its inclusion of literature on conjuring and legerdemain, recognizing the role of stage magic in understanding claims of psychic power. The catalog therefore bridges the worlds of psychology, scientific inquiry, folklore, religious belief, and entertainment history. Introductory material and library guidance further support the use of the collection as a research tool. As a bibliographic resource, the volume offers a snapshot of the intellectual landscape surrounding paranormal investigation in the early twentieth century and provides a foundation for historical research into spiritualism, occult traditions, skepticism, and the scientific study of alleged supernatural phenomena. THIS book was formerly part of the WILLIAM LUTHER COBB LIBRARY at Eckerd College in St. Petersburg, Florida, and contains a multitude of antiquarian plates and information! Hard cover edition. Dimensions: 6.5" by 10". Published by National Laboratory of Psychical Research, London. 1st printing, 1929. Tan binding.
