This book is a psychological exploration of unusual minds, a
religious exploration of demonological myth, and a philosophical
exploration of the reaches of pragmatism. It uses topics such as
hypnotism, mediumship, and mass possession to argue for a
comprehensive understanding of the demonic that acknowledges not
only the creativity which it encourages, but also the danger it can
bring. Professor Ruetenik uses James' religious pragmatism to
evaluate the relevance of psychical research, and to explain common
beliefs regarding demons, spirits, and other controlling
personalities. The conclusion of this interdisciplinary research is
as alarming as it is fascinating: When exploring the demons of
William James, we discover that ordinary personality cannot be
clearly separated from what we consider the demonic.
