Excerpt from Spiritualism Among Civilised and Savage Races: A Study in Anthropology NO subject at the present moment commands, and rightly commands, greater attention than does that of the continuation of life after death. Many of those who, in the recent subversion of civilisation, have had to mourn the loss of loved ones have naturally turned to and have found a renewed solace in a venerable doctrine. Under the name of Spiritualism, that doctrine has in recent years received the benediction of men who have achieved eminence in certain branches of scientific investigation, as well as of a host of imaginative writers. Great biologists and chemists, like Alfred Russel Wallace and Sir William Crookes physicists and astronomers, such as Professor Oliver J. Lodge and Camille Flammarion; psychologists and writers of fiction, represented by men like Professor James H. Hyslop on the one hand and Sir A. Conan Doyle on the other, not only proclaim aloud their own conviction of a future life, but assure us that the doctrine rests upon a scientific basis, and that its truth can be proved by scientific methods.
