Human Animals (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from Human Animals<br><br>The belief that human and animal souls possess power and entity when externalised and apart from the living body is less widely held than that of persistence after death. It is one that bears strongly on the subject of animal transformation as well as on the affinity which certain animals possess for some families an affinity that is akin to totemism.<br><br>These preliminary suggestions will enable readers to grasp the scope of my book which is intended to provide a comprehensive view of the subject and to familiarise them with the nature of the phenomena even though it has been well-nigh impossible to classify and tabulate them fully or to explain them satisfactorily.<br><br>About the Publisher<br><br>Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
