Excerpt from Studies in Psychical Research
I desire, in the first place, to record my obligations to Professor Henry Sidgwick and Mrs. Sidgwick, who have read through nearly the whole of my book in typescript, and have given me the benefit of their advice throughout. But in rendering this acknowledgment I should explain that, whilst we are, I believe, in complete agreement as to the attitude of mind in which the questions here discussed should be approached, and the general methods by which they should be investigated, the responsibility for the conclusions expressed rests on myself alone.
The greater part of Chap. VI. appeared in Time for February, 1886, and Chaps. V. and X. are based upon articles contributed to the Proceedings of the Society for Psychical Research. Of the illustrative narratives quoted, the greater number are taken from the same source, or from the monthly Journal and other unpublished records of the Society. I desire to acknowledge the courtesy which has placed these materials at my disposal.
