“Children Who Remember Previous Lives: A Question of Reincarnation” by Ian Stevenson (revised edition)

"This is the revised edition of Dr. Stevenson's 1987 book, summarizing for general readers almost forty years of experience in the study of children who claim to remember previous lives. For many Westerners the idea of reincarnation seems remote and bizarre; it is the author's intent to correct some common misconceptions.

The work gives an overview of the history of the belief in and evidence for reincarnation. Representative cases of children, research methods used, analyses of the cases and of variations due to different cultures, and the explanatory value of...>>

“Where Reincarnation and Biology Intersect” by Ian Stevenson

"Children who claim to remember a previous life have been found in many parts of the world, particularly in the Buddhist and Hindu countries of South Asia, among the Shiite peoples of Lebanon and Turkey, the tribes of West Africa, and the American northwest. Stevenson has collected over 2,600 reported cases of past-life memories of which 65 detailed reports have been published.

Cases of responsive xenoglossy thus add to the evidence concerning the survival of human personality after death."...>>

"An illuminating and fascinating exploration of past lives from the author of Surfing the Himalayas and Snowboarding to Nirvana.

In Lifetimes, Dr. Frederick Lenz interviewed over 100 men and women from all walks of life who vividly and with great conviction describe experiences and relationships from past lifetimes."...>>
