Reincarnation: True stories of past lives - Softcover

Anyone familiar with the existing body of literature on past lives will recognise this book as a significant contribution. Roy Stemman , editor of the magazine Life & Soul, previously named Reincarnation, has spent many years gathering together a wealth of examples of apparent past life recall. If anything, the high number of stories crammed into each chapter becomes a little overwhelming, though they do represent the vast body of evidence available on the subject. (Chapters cover rebirth within families, soul mates, group reincarnation, special talents, war victims and birthmarks, to name a few, and examples from around the world are used to illustrate each point. Hence we learn of four-year-old Uvashnee Raffan who,)

Despite the apparently endless supply of evidence for reincarnation, however, the most striking aspect of this book is its level-headed approach. Stemman goes to great lengths to balance the amazing stories with arguments opposing reincarnation. (This is a vigorously researched, scholarly book but one which is nevertheless easy to read and engrossing. Many are quick to write off belief in reincarnation as "cranky", but this book may cause some to think again.')

Roy Stemman has had a lifelong interest in reincarnation. As a journalist and director of Psychic News and as editor of Life & Soul magazine (formerly Reincarnation International) he has access to the most exciting cases and the most prominent researchers from around the world. In this inspiring and extraordinary book, he presents numerous incredible cases which are impossible to dismiss. Read about: The young boy born with scars on his head which precisely match the autopsy report of the murdered man he believes he was in a former life; An Italian family whose daughter died but announced in a dream that she would return - and their new baby who was able to sing perfectly the lullaby her dead sister had been taught; Burmese children who remember details of life as Japanese soldiers;;· The English woman whose memories of a past life reunited her children from that previous life, who were then able to corroborate her memories; Cases of people who under regression can speak a foreign language fluently; Cases of famous people who believe they have lived before; And much, much more
