Hansen, F. C. C
Hansen, F. C. C.
Danish scholar known as the proponent of a theory of "in-voluntary whispering" to account for apparent thought transference (i.e., telepathy ). The theory, originally published as a pamphlet in German, was discussed at some length in the Journal of the Society for Psychical Research (SPR) (vol. 9) and the Proceedings of the SPR (vols. 12 and 14).
