Lyhyt elämäkerta
Anthropologist, author, and one of the most experienced psychical investigators of modern times. Born in Ceylon (now Sri Lanka), he was educated at Pembroke College, Cambridge University, England (M.A., 1912), and the University of London (D.Sc., Ph.D.). He joined the staff of the Cambridge University Library. The son of a Scot living in Ceylon in 1890, he was reticent about his personal affairs, and did not publicize his exact birth date. He appears to have had some private wealth in his earlier years, since he was able to travel and follow his intellectual interests.

Gives a detailed and exceptional account of women from all cultures ans ethnics around the world, even in the most remote places and shows how different our environment makes us yet we are still the same.

A fascinating, humorous study of the lives of six oddly intriguing characters. Contents: St. Joseph of Copertino: the friar who flew; James Allen: the man who was not; Berbiguier: bottler of spirits; the Deacon of Paris: dead but still active; D.D. Home: sorcerer of kings; Angel Anna: the woman who failed. Includes good illustrations of each character.
