This book presents the papers presented at a symposium arranged by the editor and held at Clark College from November 9th to December 11th of 1926. Spiritualism had been around long enough by 1926 that such a symposium was no longer a fringe idea. Murchison invited speakers on all three sides of this issue. Presenters of papers at the symposium included: Sir Oliver Lodge, Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, Frederick Bligh Bond, L.R.G. Crandon, Mary Austin, Margaret Deland, William McDougall, Hans Driesch, Walter Franklin Prince, F.C.S. Schiller, John E. Coover, Gardner Murphy, Joseph Jastrow and Harry Houdini Of the 14 papers presented 10 held some sort of belief in psychic phenomena and only 4 were either "Unconvinced as Yet' or "Antagonistic". Of the latter, three were psychologists and one was the famed magician Harry Houdini. On the believer's or sympathizer's side were a number of famous individuals, foremost being Sir Arthur Conan Doyle and Mary Austin. Much time is given over to the infamous medium known as Margery and her well publicized battle with Houdini who wanted to prove her to be a fraud. She eventually was proved fraudulent, but not by Houdini.
