Many believe that spirits are constantly about us and that it is possible, through a variety of means, to speak to them and to have them speak to us. Author Buckland looks at these methods of communication, their history, and the personalities involved throughout the past three hundred years of this eternal quest. Includes accounts of ghosts and hauntings, levitation and trances, astral projection, psychic surgery, selfpainting portraits, crystal gazing, predictions, and poltergeists. Mediums, clairvoyants, telepaths, and other well-known people connected to the field worldwide are profiled, as are notorious fakes and frauds. Spirit beliefs among the famous, including Abraham Lincoln, Mark Twain, and Mae West, are examined.--From publisher description.  aElectronic reproduction.bPalo Alto, Calif. :cebrary,d2009.nAvailable via World Wide Web.nAccess may be limited to ebrary affiliated libraries. 0aSpiritualismvEncyclopedias. 0aFuture lifevEncyclopedias. 7aElectronic books.2local2 aebrary, Inc.40uhttp://site.ebrary.com/lib/strathmore/Doc?id=10297186zAn electronic book accessible through the World Wide Web; click to view
