Edward Barrett Warman (1847-1931) was an American psychologist, health expert, and advocate of physical culture. Не edited a column, ""The Care of the Body,"" in the Los Angeles Times and authored several books focused on physical fitness, including A System of Practical Gymnastics Without a Teacher (1885), Physical Training Simplified (1897), and The Care of the Body (1923). Warman promoted daily physical exercise for maintaining health and longevity. His writings contributed to the early development of fitness culture in the United States. He passed away in 1931, leaving a lasting impact on health and wellness advocacy.
THERE are two reasons why I have written these books: first, in response to thousands of my pupils throughout this country and Canada who desire the instruction in more tangible form than simply through the medium of the voice; second, that the general public may have the result of thorough, honest, and unbiassed investigation extending throughout a period of thirty-five years.
Having kept abreast of the times, I am fully aware of the conclusions other writers have reached, especially on spiritism; and am further conscious of the fact that, with few ex-ceptions, I do not, in the main, agree with these. However, my decisions have in no way been influenced by any writer, not even by my friend, the late Dr. Thomson Jay Hudson, whom I first met in 1899. When our paths converged, we found we had been travelling on parallel lines for twenty-five years. Comparing notes, I was pleased to learn that we had arrived, practically, at the same conclusions; therefore, there may appear to be much of Hudson in my writings, and it could not well be otherwise, especially on spiritism. I felt highly honored to have so great an authority bear so corroborative testimony.
By consulting the topics treated it will be observed that I have covered a much wider field than those who have preceded me, having touched upon every phase of Psychic Phenomena. This I have done as briefly and concisely as possible and practicable, and while my decisions are positive, they are neither arrogant nor dogmatic.
