Explore the evidence and ideas behind life after death with a careful look at spiritualist experiments and reports.
This edition presents a historical view of the survival of human identity after death, combining case records, communications, and expert commentary to approach a difficult question with restraint and curiosity.
The book gathers testimonies, experiments, and theoretical discussions from a long tradition of psychical research.

Throughout, the text weighs what can be known, what remains unproven, and how these ideas have shaped belief across different perspectives.
What you will experience:
- Historical context for spiritualist study and its methods
- Accounts of communications from supposed discarnate voices and their attempted corroboration
- Explanations of terms and concepts used in mediumship and exteriorization
- A discussion of how evidence is judged and what counts as proof in this field
Ideal for readers curious about the history of psychical research and the ongoing debate about life after death.
