by René Sudre (1880-1968) - French scientific writer, teacher and parapsychologist.
Well-known for his various chronicles on paranormal phenomena, Sudre experimented in many fields of parapsychology and spent many years attempting to show that psi phenomena were a matter for science.
He argued for a coherent theoretical approach to psi and believed that the universe was permeated with a creative power that accounted for all psychic phenomena. He believed that the assumptions of Spiritualism were erroneous and that all living creatures possessed some extrasensory faculty. He was a corresponding member & one-time vice president of the National Laboratory of Psychical Research, London University; secretary of French committees for international conferences on psychical research in Copenhagen (1922) and Warsaw (1923); and a member of the Society for Psychical Research, London.

Besides his own books, he translated into French various books on parapsychology by William James, Sir William Barrett, J. B. Rhine, and T. K. Oesterreich and contributed numerous articles to such journals as Psychic Research (1926-31) and Revue Métapsychique (1922-26).
