First American Edition, stated (240 x 160) pp. 234 + adverts, embellished with woodblock-style illustrations. Bound half calf-style with red and black fabric, with title in faded gilt along spine.

In this influential work of mid-twentieth-century psychic research, Robert Crookall (1890-1981), a geologist turned psychical investigator, compiles and analyzes numerous accounts of out-of-body experiences (OBEs).

The book discusses the theoretical framework of astral travel, its purported mechanics, and methods by which practitioners claim to induce such states through relaxation, meditation, and heightened mental awareness. Although widely read in metaphysical and parapsychological circles, the phenomena described remain unverified by mainstream science, which generally attributes similar experiences to neurological or psychological processes.…
