TLS, one page, 8.5 x 11, personal letterhead, September 23, 1952. Letter to "Mr. Gold," an editor at Life Magazine. In full: "I enclose herewith the article on Rhine and parapsychology at large. The nature of his book has made it necessary for me to discuss above all the implications of Psi, and I have thought it best to cover a great many fields briefly, raising questions and dropping speculative hints in each. I have deliberately quoted from a number of sources other than Rhine, as I think it is important to make the general public realize that this is not a topic confined exclusively to Duke University, but one which has engaged some of the ablest thinkers of our time." Huxley makes a few handwritten corrections. In fine condition. Gold had asked Huxley to write an article on recent developments in parapsychology, using J. B. Rhine's book New World of the Mind as its basis. The article Huxley wrote for Life, 'A Case for ESP, PK and Psi,' appeared in the magazine's January 11, 1954 issue.
