Author's Note I HAVE striven hard to make this, the fourth edition of my handbook of projection, worthy of the sincere commendation of those who will consult its pages. It is not perfect — true, but few things in this world are perfect, and I have faith to believe those who use the book will look with kindly eyes upon its shortcomings, remembering that the work was a large one, and that much of the ground had to be broken as virgin sod. I want to embrace this opportunity to tender my sincere thanks to those thousands of users of former editions of the handbook who have said such kindly things concerning them. Their words of commendation have given me courage to complete the compilation of this, the fourth edition, at times when the burden of the work seemed unbearably heavy.
