Science Vs. Modern Spiritualism V2 is a comprehensive treatise written by Agenor De Gasparin in 1856. The book provides a critical analysis of the phenomenon of modern spiritualism that gained popularity in the 19th century. The author examines the practice of turning tables, which was a popular spiritualist activity at the time, and explores the supernatural in general, including the existence of spirits. De Gasparin argues that spiritualism is not based on scientific evidence and is instead a product of human imagination and deception. He presents a range of scientific and philosophical arguments to support his claim, including the laws of physics and the principles of rationality. The author also investigates the psychological and social factors that contribute to the popularity of spiritualism, such as the desire for spiritual enlightenment and the need for social connection.The book is divided into several chapters, each of which focuses on a specific aspect of spiritualism. De Gasparin provides detailed descriptions of spiritualist practices and beliefs, and offers a critical analysis of their validity. He also examines the role of mediums in spiritualism and the methods they use to communicate with spirits.Overall, Science Vs. Modern Spiritualism V2 is a thought-provoking and insightful book that challenges the validity of spiritualism from a scientific and philosophical perspective. It is a must-read for anyone interested in the history of spiritualism and its impact on society.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
