ABSTRACT
IT would be a great mistake to imagine that Dr Soal’s experiments with Mr Shackleton and with Mrs Stewart stand alone; and that, if only the results of them could be accounted for in normal or abnormal terms, all would be over except the shouting. In this chapter I will first describe briefly the Pratt-Pearce experiment, and then more fully the experiments made by Mr Tyrrell with his subject Miss Johnson. The results of both these, to whatever causes they may be due, deviated to a fantastic extent from what could reasonably have been expected on the hypothesis of chance-coincidence.
