1902. A collation of opinions as to a future life by some of the
world's most eminent scientific men and thinkers. Lodge was a
physicist and writer involved in the development of the wireless
telegraph. Lodge, in his Royal Institute lectures coined the term
coherer and gained the syntonic (or tuning) patent from the United
States Patent Office. Most controversially, however, he was a
longtime researcher into psychic phenomena and a dedicated believer
in Spiritualism, an understandable pursuit, given his huge
contribution to scientific understanding of the unseen world. After
1900 he became prominent in psychical research, believing strongly
in the possibility of communicating with the dead. After he lost
his son Raymond during WW1 he was convinced to have established
contact with him through a medium. Contents: The Scientists; The
Psychical Researchers; The Philosophers; The Spiritualists; What
the Editor Thinks About It; and Immortality from New Standpoints.
