Synopsis

While religious faith, at least that which is of the orthodox type, appears to be on the decline and church attendance fall, the great experience of death which all men must undergo continues to intrigue many who seldom, if ever, cross the threshold of a church. In this meticulously compiled volume, Dr. Robert Crookall, an eminent scientist who is also a student of psychical research, has brought together, from a great many different sources, what appear to be the personal testimonies of the experiences of death and survival. Taken together they form an impressive body of evidence on a topic where opinion is frequently expressed but evidence seldom considered: what we have here an entirely new kind of evidence. The success of the first edition of this book, published in 1961, has led to the issue of this revised and updated edition.

A propos du livre

À propos de l?auteur

Robert Crookall, born in 1890, was educated at Westminster College, London, and Bristol University. He graduated with first-class honours in Chemistry, Botany and Psychology. After taking his Ph.D. he lectured at Aberdeen University. He then joined the staff of the Geological Survey of Great Britain, specialising in coal-forming plants. He helped in the search for new coal-bearing areas, which work culminated in the publication of a monograph on Fossil Plants of the Carboniferous Rocks of Great Britain (1955-70), the standard work on the subject. He was awarded a Doctorate in Science in 1930. Crookall resigned from his geological work in 1952 in order to devote the rest of his life to psychological studies.
