Brady Brower clearly demonstrates the importance of the French strain of psychical research and shows it to be a crucial and unjustly neglected episode in the story of modern psychology. What he has uncovered should provoke a searching revision of the standard account of the resistance psychoanalysis faced in fin-de-siecle and interwar France."--John Warne Monroe, author of Laboratories of Faith: Mesmerism, Spiritism, and Occultism in Modern France "Apart from offering a wealth of valuable original insights, Unruly Spirits transports findings of French historians of psychology and physical research ... revealing the close links and strong overlaps between late nineteenth- and early twentieth-century French psychology and physical research. . . . Fascinating and important."--Social History of Medicine "Essential reading for those interested in the history of either psychology or the border sciences."--Journal of the History of the Behavioral Sciences "Brower's book analyzes deftly the history of this troubled transition from a 'philosophy of the mind to a science of the mind in modern France.'"--Bulletin of the History of Medicine "Insightful study of the 'science' of the psychic--physical research (PR)-in modern France."--ISIS
