The Secret of Life

"In the 'Secret of Life' Lakhovsky confines himself to the study of electromagnetic waves, deeply penetrating waves and unknown waves. There are certainly many more processes of energy transmission besides revealed to us by Newton and Fresnel. It is in the study of human beings that the chances of discovering such processes are most promising. Therefore, let us experiment by using the methods of physicists and chemists, and let us aim at discovering the special detector mentioned in the conclusion of this work."-From the preface.
