Occultism and Modern Science by T. Konstantin Oesterreich

Publishing: 1923 Methuen & Co. First Edition thus Translated from the second German edition

The author, Konstantin Oesterreich, was a German religious psychologist and philosopher. He served as a professor of philosophy at the University of Tbingen. His work, titled Occultism and Modern Science, is one of only two of his writings that have been translated into English. In this study, he aims to explain certain supernatural phenomena through scientific reasoning. By combining scientific analysis with an openness to exploring the enigmatic aspects of human experience, Oesterreich provides a unique perspective on the complexities of the mind and its potential, challenging readers to reconsider their views on the intersection of science and the supernatural. He explores topics such as psychometry, telekinesis, and hypnotism, and includes a chapter on Rudolf Steiners theosophy.
