Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Essays in Psychical Research The papers which are here collected from various periodicals in which they have appeared, are in every sense essays in Inquiry. There is little in them for those who know; for the Spiritualist who with certainty explains, or for the Materialist who, with equal certainty, ignores. In spite of twelve years association with the Society for Psychical Research I can profess no special sources of information, impose no theories, dogmatise as to no deductions. I have no claim to the attention of others, but such as they may grant to a lifelong experience of some of the phenomena under consideration. My earliest fulfilled premonition was recorded when less than three years old, and though such things were a punishable offence in nursery and schoolroom, they persisted in right of heredity, of temperament, possibly of intercourse with Nature in her wilder utterances: psychic experience being a state to live in, not an art to acquire. It is, perhaps, because certain of the phenomena called "psychic" are as familiar to me as any other phenomena of nature, that I do not regard them as in any sense supernatural, that I can approach them with more calm than the beginner, and less parti pris than the convert; that I have nothing to ask of the professional medium, and no occasion for offence from the vulgar trivialities of the stance.
