Although the author begins and ends this book declaring an agnostic stance to the topic under study, offering no personal view of the authenticity of the psychics’ claims or any desire to ‘debunk’ them, his scholarly CA assassination of their accounts leaves the reader hopelessly searching in vain for any kernel of truth in the suggestion that psychics and mediums do in fact converse with the dead. This is, in short, a masterful examination of how mediums and psychics effectively ‘do it’. However, that is not to say one finishes the book feeling duped, but rather that one marvels at the rhetorical and conversational skills of the psychic and medium practitioner.
