Apparitions is a book written by G. N. M. Tyrrell and published in 1953. The book is a comprehensive study of the phenomenon of apparitions, which are defined as the appearance of a person or object that is not physically present. The author explores various types of apparitions, including those associated with religious and spiritual experiences, as well as those related to psychic and paranormal phenomena. Tyrrell draws on a wide range of sources, including historical accounts, scientific studies, and personal experiences, to provide a detailed analysis of apparitions. He examines the psychological and cultural factors that can influence the perception of apparitions, and he considers the implications of these experiences for our understanding of consciousness, the nature of reality, and the possibility of life after death. Throughout the book, Tyrrell maintains a critical and skeptical approach, questioning the validity of many claims about apparitions and offering alternative explanations for some of the phenomena that are commonly associated with them. Nevertheless, he also acknowledges the profound impact that apparitions can have on individuals and communities, and he argues that they deserve serious consideration as a subject of scientific inquiry. Overall, Apparitions is a thought-provoking and insightful exploration of a fascinating and mysterious phenomenon that has captivated human beings for centuries.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
