With chapters on reincarnation, karma, mystical experience, telepathy and clairvoyance, the survival of death, etc. Raynor (1901-1987) earned an MA at Oxford and his doctorate in physics at the University of London. As he aged he became increasingly interested in para-psychology, of which this book is an early manifestation.

One of the better copies we've seen; dust jacket is now housed in a removable, clear archival sleeve.
