Invisible World is a non-fiction book written by Hereward Carrington that explores the world of psychic phenomena and spiritualism. The book is divided into two parts, with the first part focusing on the history of spiritualism and the second part delving into various psychic phenomena such as telepathy, clairvoyance, and psychokinesis.Carrington begins by tracing the roots of spiritualism back to the 19th century, when mediums claimed to communicate with the dead and perform miraculous feats. He discusses the rise of famous mediums like the Fox sisters and explores the controversies that surrounded them.In the second part of the book, Carrington examines the scientific evidence for psychic phenomena. He discusses experiments conducted by researchers like J.B. Rhine and investigates claims of telepathy and precognition. He also explores the possibility of psychokinesis, or the ability to move objects with the mind.Throughout the book, Carrington remains skeptical but open-minded about the existence of psychic phenomena. He presents the evidence and allows readers to draw their own conclusions. Invisible World is a fascinating exploration of a mysterious and often misunderstood realm of human experience.1946.
