He would later expand this theory to include purported mental and psychic phenomena in his fourth and final book, Wild Talents. He also tied his previous statements on what he referred to as the Super-Sargasso Sea into his beliefs on teleportation. In Lo!, Fort coined the now-popular term " teleportation". The book also deals extensively with other subjects, including paranormal phenomena (see parapsychology), which were explored in his first book, The Book of the Damned. Of Fort's four books, this volume deals most frequently and scathingly with astronomy (continuing from his previous book New Lands).
In the final chapter of the book he proposes a new cosmology that the earth is stationary in space and surrounded by a solid shell which is "not unthinkably far away". In it he details a wide range of unusual phenomena.
Lo! is the third published nonfiction work of the author Charles Fort (first edition 1931).
