Life Before Life: A scientific investigation of children’s memories of previous lives
£9.40£10.40 (-10%)
Children who remember a previous life usually begin talking about it, quite spontaneously, at the age of two or three. This remarkable book builds on the ground-breaking investigations into reincarnation carried out by Professor Ian Stevenson at the University of Virginia. For the past 40 years, doctors at this major American medical centre have conducted research into your children’s reports of past-life memories. In Life Before Life, psychiatrist Dr Jim B. Tucker reveals their fascinating research.
•British twins whose birthmarks and behaviour closely resembles their deceased older sisters.
•A boy in Africa who knows the names and personal details of everyone in another village without ever having been there.
•A child who dies of a gunshot in a previous life and carries a birthmark of the same size, shape and placement in this life.
This remarkable material will challenge and ultimately change your understanding about life and death.

seemed to concentrate on older stories. I would like to hear more stories from people in UK and not from a Country where reincarnation is built into their culture. It is a fascinating topic.

Deffinately a must read on this topic. I apprechiated this book much more than “Return to Life” by the sam author.
by Mary Bessenich
Fascinating topic. For people who believe reincarnation to be a taboo read this book. Researchers at the University of Virginia carried out extensive research into a much maligned subject only to be surprised themselves. This is a life changing book.

I personally am having trouble maintaining an interest, I find his style very heavy. He is quite objective – perhaps its the cynic in me me but his analysis seems to report the blindingly obvious. On the plus side he is most definately not simply taking the easy or most obvious options when examining the data.

This is a serious book on reincarnation to be taken seriously. The information is presented in a detailed systematic way with arguments about reincarnation put succinctly and cogently. So it was disappointing to see that past life and between life regression was dismissed cursorily by the author.
The book production was not of the highest quality, sadly. The paper was rather dark and made reading each page more of a trial than a joy.

A fascinating and well written book summarising and relating extensive scientific studies into reincarnation/childhood memories of previous lives by the author and his research team. This is one of a few books on this and closely related subjects by this author and his colleagues. The evidence presented is utterly compelling. If reincarnation is not a genuine phenomenon, there is certainly something strange going on. After reading this book, it is hard not to be convinced that some people are either reincarnated or somehow capable of receiving verifiable life-memories that belonged to other people. Whatever the truth is, the evidence presented here in a balanced and calm manner really demands and explanation. Very readable.

I have many many books about other lives, so got this to pass on to unbelievers. Get a bit bored by the scientific proof, stuff, but recognize why it was written and investigated in this way, in a world which has so little trust in a bigger expansive picture, beyond just what our physical senses can touch, see, smell and taste and hear, in a more limited way.

I haven’t read the book yet and doubtful I will be able to as the print is quite small but I could have managed that, it’s the paleness of the print. My eyes are not troublesome, just age related need for reading glasses. Such a shame.
