Direct Transmission of Thoughts. The Forgotten Breakthrough of Domestic Parapsychology

The fundamental work of Russian biologist and parapsychologist Naum Grigoryevich Kotik (1876–1920), first published in 1908, represents one of the world's first attempts at a scientific approach to studying the phenomenon of telepathy. Relying on his own large-scale experiments, the author analyzes the possibility of transmitting thoughts and sensations over a distance without the aid of sensory organs.

The book summarizes the results of hundreds of experiments conducted with the participation of different people and considers hypotheses that might explain this mysterious phenomenon - from unknown physical emissions to the properties of human consciousness. 

Despite its age, this work remains an important historical monument of science, marking the moment when attempts to study psychic phenomena shifted from the realm of superstition to laboratory conditions. The publication will be extremely interesting to historians of science, psychologists, and anyone interested in exploring the unusual capabilities of the human psyche and the origins of modern parapsychology.
