<em>Greg Taylor over at the excellent </em>Daily Grail<em>, has posted an <a href="http://www.dailygrail.com/node/5186" target="_blank">interview with Deborah Blum</a>, author of </em>Ghost Hunters<em>, a history of the early days of the Society for Psychical Research, and the scientists, like William James, who were attracted to Spiritualism.</em>

"Do we need another book debunking dead mediums? The whole point of my book - the one I knew would get me in trouble with the Randis of the world - was that possibility exists, that some things remain genuinely fascinatingly explicable, and that there are still questions that deserve to be answered in the realms of the supernatural. Even if we only learn that 'supernatural' is the wrong word, that the real answer is that we simply haven't found the limits of the natural world yet."<em><a href="http://www.dailygrail.com/node/5186" target="_blank">Full interview here.</a></em>
