Practical Mental Influence and Telepathy: Its Theory, Facts, and Proof.

It is a strange and almost amusing fact that there should be at the same time, on the part of the general public, such a general acceptance of the existence of personal magnetism, on the one hand, and such an ignorance of the nature of this wonderful force, on the other hand. -from Chapter 1, "Personal Magnetism" The New Thought movement of the turn of the twentieth century combined Christian spirituality with paranormal power in an effort to give practical expression to the forces of the universe. Or so its proponents believed. One of the most influential thinkers of this early "New Age" philosophy promises here, in this 1913 book, to show the reader "how to develop your personality" and "how to develop a dominating influence" through such exercises as: . Projecting Nerve Force . Mental Radiation . The Positive Aura . The Magnetic Duel . Magnetic Self-Defence . The Power of Controlling Others The roots of today's groundswell for self-help, personal empowerment, and pop spirituality can be explored in this one small, highly entertaining book. Also available from Cosimo Classics: The Advanced Course in Personal Magnetism, by Theron Q. Dumont. American writer WILLIAM WALKER ATKINSON (1862-1932)-aka Theron Q. Dumont-was born in Baltimore and had built up a successful law practice in Pennsylvania before professional burnout led him to the religious New Thought movement. He served as editor of the popular magazine New Thought from 1901 to 1905, and as editor of the journal Advanced Thought from 1916 to 1919. He authored dozens of New Thought books-including Arcane Formula or Mental Alchemy and Vril, or Vital Magnetism-under numerous pseudonyms, some of which are likely still unknown today.

Putting his many years of research into a single volume, Hereward Carrington presents readers with a self-help guide for increasing their psychic abilities. Everyone who has experienced psychic phenomena, he says, wants to know how they can develop such powers on their own. And in this book, first published in 1920, he gives them their answers. As the path of development differs for each kind of medium, he has provided instruction on a variety of abilities, including automatic writing and clairvoyance. Serious students of the paranormal as well as those interested purely for entertainment value will find this book a helpful reference. British investigator of psychic phenomenon HEREWARD CARRINGTON (1880-1958) was a member of the Society for Psychical Research and wrote many books on the paranormal. Despite many of his most convincing cases being shown to be frauds, he continued to study claims of psychic power and established a research society in the United States in 1921. Some of his most famous works include Eusapia Paladino and Her Phenomena (1909) and Psychical Phenomena and the War (1918).

This collection of essays and lectures by renowned theosophist and occultist C.W. Leadbeater provides an educated insider's view not only of clairvoyance and the power of the mind, but also of black magic and white magic, and the perseverance of the spirit after death. Both intellectual and spiritual, Leadbeater's writings attempt to not simply explain these difficult and controversial subjects, but provide context and guidance. Always stressing the importance of education and training in these areas, he raises them above the conventional wisdom that they are fanciful arts. Secrets Revealed is a must-read for anyone interested in a serious consideration of New Age spiritual practices. English clergyman turned spiritualist CHARLES WEBSTER LEADBEATER (1854-1934) was ordained as an Anglican priest, but later joined the prominent Theosophical Society and traveled to India to study alternative spiritual and occult practices, eventually settling into his life as a clairvoyant and author. His other works include Man Visible and Invisible and The Science of the Sacrament.
