Modern scientific research has placed another stumbling block in the way of our acceptance of " survival " in any form, by showing us that all life is graded--that the animal and plant worlds melt into one another, with no clearly defined lines of demarcation. It is indeed often difficult to tell where the one ends and the other begins. This being so, the question may properly be raised: If man is entitled to immortality, why not the animals also? and if the animals, why not the insects, plants, metals, minerals--in fact every form of existence--since all have been shown to be inter-related and similar to a remarkable degree? This fact has struck one of our modern thinkers so forcibly, indeed, that he himself has said: "For my own part, then, so far as logic goes, I am willing that every leaf that ever grew in this world's forests and rustled in the breeze should become immortal. It is purely a question of fact: are the leaves so, or not?" (H1tman Immortality, by William James, pp. 43-44.) The problem is a very proper one, once we grant the similarity between plants and animals. The fact, however, may be doubted. Recent researches undertaken by Prof. Chunder Bose, M. A., D. Sc., of the University of Calcutta, however, seem to have settled this question in the affirmative; and have shown us that plants in very truth live and react in much the same manner as the simpler forms of life, as we know it in animal organisms. This being so, the question calls for solution, and it may he interesting to give here a resume of the more important facts, seeming to show that plants do, in fact, possess a form of life-energy so closely akin to that of animals that it is hard to distinguish between the two. Plants eat, ...

This book was released on 2021-08-23 with total page 88 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt:... PREFACE In the following pages I have dealt chiefly with the mental or psychological phenomena of psychical research, and have not touched upon the "physical" manifestations to any extent. The book is mostly theoretical and constructive in tone; and, because of its speculative character, it may, perhaps, prove of value to future psychical investigators. It represents the author's conclusions after several years' experimentation; and, in a field so new as this, scientific hypotheses and speculations are assuredly helpful--indicating the road we must travel, and the possible interpretation of certain facts, which have been accumulated in the past, as the result of years of laborious research. I believe that practically all the phenomena of spiritualism are true; that is, that they have occurred in a genuine manner from time to time in the past; that they are supernormal in character, and are genuine phenomenal occurrences. But as to the further question: "What is the nature of the intelligence lying behind and controlling these phenomena?"--that, I think, is as yet unsolved, and is likely to remain so for some time to come. I do not believe that the simple spiritistic explanation--especially as at present held--is the correct one, nor one that explains all the facts; for I believe that the phenomena are more complicated than this. Nor are the ordinary psychological explanations at present in vogue adequate to cover them. The explanation is yet to seek; and the solution will only be found when a sufficient number of facts have been accumulated and the various explanatory theories have been tested,--to see which of them is really adequate. My hope is that the present book may help to accomplish this result by supplying a little in both directions! The present edition of this book is to some extent an abridgement of the first edition, which appeared some seven years ago. I have, for instance, omitted a number of "cases" which were originally included, and also my "sittings" with Mrs. Piper--which material will be published at a later date in another volume. I have also omitted the original First Chapter,--since much of this material was subsequently included in my Modern Psychical Phenomena. On the other hand, I have included a new chapter on Recent Experiments in Psychic Photography,--composed partly of original and hitherto unpublished material, and partly of the experiments undertaken, some years ago, by Dr. Baraduc,--in "photographing the soul." The account of his experiments was originally published in my book, Death: its Causes and Phenomena, but they are now included here as being more in line with other experiments recently undertaken in this field. I have also added a brief chapter on the Scientific Investigation of Psychic Phenomena by means of Laboratory Instruments. A word, finally, as to the necessarily slow progress which has been and is being made in the study of "psychics." As this objection is often raised, I cannot do better, perhaps, than to quote an admirable passage from Prof. William James (Memories and Studies, pp. 175-76), where he says...
