Here she describes the many historical descriptions of spirit materialization, observed under well-controlled conditions by experienced researchers such as Nobel laureate Charles Richet. She acknowledges that such phenomena are ostensibly unbelievable, no matter how well-attested. She describes her own experience witnessing such phenomena in the presence of the spiritualist circle in England centered on the physical medium, Stewart Alexander. She describes levitations, matter passing through matter, materializations, and direct voice manifestations.
