The Phenomena Of Materialisation

Philosophy & Religion Spirituality & New Age Psychology & Self-Help

The Phenomena of Materialisation by Douglas Baker is a vintage 1981 paperback that invites mind-body-spirit readers to explore the mystical borderland where thought supposedly takes solid form. In sixty illustrated pages, the late English occultist blends parapsychology, spiritualist history and practical exercises to explain how sé-room ectoplasm, ghostly apparitions and ritual objects may manifest.

This compact Little Elephant textbook arrives clean and tight: an unmarked interior, smooth spine and crisp illustrated pages free of writing or dog-ears; only one light scuff interrupts an otherwise tidy copy. Its 5-decade age lends authentic patina for collectors of paranormal, New Age, and witchcraft lore without the brittleness often found in vintage paperbacks.

Ideal for young adults and adults curious about occult culture studies, the book distils complex esoteric ideas into an accessible primer on materialisation phenomena. Baker’s clear diagrams and concise explanations make it a ready reference for meditation circles, paranormal researchers, or anyone building a curated shelf of signed-quality books on a budget—no inscription, no ex-library stamps, just pure content waiting for a new keeper.
