      This book is a study of Supernaturalism from a new point of view - as a Source of Income and a Shield to Privilege. I have searched the libraries through, and no one has done it before. If you read it, you will see that it needed to be done. It has meant twenty-five years of thought and a year of investigation. It contains the facts.

      I publish the book myself, so that it may be available at the lowest possible price. I am giving my time and energy, in return for one thing which you may give me - the joy of speaking a true word and getting it heard.

      The present volume is the first of a series, which will do for Education, Journalism and Literature what has here been done for the Church: the four volumes making a work of revolutionary criticism, an Economic Interpretation of Culture under the general title of "The Dead Hand."
