"How to Thought-Read" by F.A.S. Ph.D. James Coates is a manual of instruction on psychic phenomena written in the late 19th century. The book explores a range of topics related to mental science, such as hypnotism, thought transference, clairvoyance, and psychometry, aiming to provide practical insights and techniques for readers interested in developing psychic skills. The opening of the text introduces the author’s intention to elucidate various states of consciousness, particularly focusing on somnambulism, hypnosis, and their relation to thought-reading. Coates explains the factors that influence the manifestation of mental abilities, laying the groundwork for understanding psychic phenomena as a bridge between physical and spiritual dimensions. He suggests that heightened awareness and control over one's psychic abilities could unravel the complex relationship between mind and soul, providing an exciting perspective for readers curious about the uncharted territories of human consciousness.
