Practical Mind-reading: a Course of Lessons on Thought Transference William Walker Atkinson

Followers of the New Thought movement of a century ago vehemently believed in the concept of "mind over matter," and one of the most influential thinkers of this early "New Age" philosophy here offers the latest (as of the turn of the 20th century) scientific investigations and proofs for the elusive marvel of mind reading, full instruction for tapping into the "Nerve Currents" that course through your brain and into the brains of others, and complete directions for parlor demonstrations and sensational feats that will astound your friends. American writer WILLIAM WALKER ATKINSON (1862-1932) was editor of the popular magazine New Thought from 1901 to 1905, and editor of the journal Advanced Thought from 1916 to 1919. He authored dozens of New Thought books under numerous pseudonyms, some of which are likely still unknown today, including "Yogi Ramacharaka" and "Theron Q. Dumont."
