For most of his life a clerk in the post office, Frank Podmore
(1856 1910) was a prolific author on psychical research. As an
undergraduate, Podmore became interested in the ideas of
spiritualism, and he joined the British National Association of
Spiritualists. Eventually disillusioned, Podmore co-founded several
organizations: the Progressive Association (in 1882); the
Fellowship of the New Life (1883); and, spurred by his desire to
see political change, the Fabian Society (1884). Podmore's
membership in the Society for Psychical Research influenced his
activities and interests, and he spent the next twenty years
investigating and writing on psychical phenomena. His second book
(of 1897) discusses a range of topics, from spiritualism to
poltergeists to telepathy. Podmore seeks to ascertain the truth
about psychical phenomena, and this work will be of great interest
to scholars interested in the history of science, psychical
research, and Victorian scientific and spiritualist movements.
