Abstract
Efram Sera-Shriar's I Psychic Investigators i fits into the growing body of scholarship that examines the impact of 19th-century metaphysical movements on the institutionalization of science. Because of these absences, Sera-Shriar's book should be seen as an internalist history of anthropology with conceptual connections to the late 19th-century investigations of the spirit hypothesis and by extension, to the limits of human knowledge debate.
