ON THE EDGE OF THE ETHERIC" by Arthur Findlay / 1931 / 209 pages. *****

 
Is the spirit world real and tangible? Do its inhabitants retain their individuality? Is it true that spirit people eat? What is the afterlife like? Do dogs, cats and other animals survive physical death? What kind of houses do the so called dead live in? All these questions and more, many more are answered simply and frankly in Arthur Findlay's "On the edge of the etheric". First published in 1931, it has lost none of its import or value. Indeed "Psychic News" termed it "the most important book in all the literature of Spiritualism." Meanwhile, adverts for it were refused by the "Church Times" and the Church of Scotland publication "Life and Work". Since it first appeared, "On the Edge of the Etheric," has run to almost 70 editions: Mr Findlay, one of modern Spiritualism's most scholarly and esteemed writers bases this book upon the superb mediumship of John Sloan. He attended his first sitting feeling "decidedly suspicious, " of different tone and accent, they gave their names, their correct earth addresses, spoke to the right people, who recognized them, and referred to intimate family matters. Never once was a mistake made." Subtitled "survival after death scientifically explained," this volume supplies the key to the mystery of what awaits all after physical death.
