5.0 out of 5 stars Incredible but True Stories of the Afterlife, January 9, 2005

If you have any interest in life after death, then you owe it to yourself to read this book. Sherman continues in the tradition of other researchers like F. W. H. Myers and provides highly convincing evidence that humans survive their physical death. Sherman covers the topic from many different points of view, from ghost hauntings and dreams to electronic voice phenomena (EVP). I differ with some of the other reviews on this page that question credulity of technological contact with the "other side." Mark Macy in Miracles in the Storm also documents other-worldly communications through phones, radios, and televisions. Just because something seems "far out" doesn't mean it isn't real. After all, Scientific American and the scientific establishment once considered the Wright Brothers a hoax also. The history of science is full of examples of ridiculed ideas that later became the foundations of everyday life. Perhaps one day, after-life communications will seem as commonplace as Internet radio is today. (Dr. Simeon Hein is the author of Opening Minds: A Journey of Extraordinary Encounters, Crop Circles, and Resonance.)

5.0 out of 5 stars A prove that there's no death to the consciousness, June 2, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: The Dead Are Alive: They Can and Do Communicate With You (Mass Market Paperback)

READ THIS BOOK or ANY HAROLD SHERMAN BOOK. IT'LL CHANGE YOUR LIFE. Harold Sherman is the author of many ESP books. My favourite is "How TO Make ESP Work For You" and "The Power Of Prayer" since these are the 2 books that I own. I am sure if I own his other out of print books, I'll love them too. I READ THIS BOOK once although I didn't own it. Sherman goes from case example to another (with evidences) to convince us that the dead watches over us before they move onto another plane of existence. There's no death to the soul or consciousness, I am sure you already believe that. And our subconscious is all connected at a deeper level (hence we experience ESP sometimes). If people who read the BIBLE can talk to God which is Divine Consciousness, why can't they accept that we can communicate with all kinds of consciousness, since God includes the Whole and Infinite? I see people talking to God or Jesus in their mind and they have no problem with that. So why don't the reviewer below be more open minded? Sherman was a deeply spiritual man who radiates an aura of goodness, he was a very respected man in Arkansas and for those who knew him. He did a pioneering long-distance telepathy experiment with Sir Hubert Wilkins (the artic explorer). Wilkins was in the north pole on a rescue mission in 1938, Sherman remained in New York, and 80% of SHerman's records of Wilkin's activities were accurate! So accurate that he could record Wilkin's thoughts! He trained and experimented with the power of the human mind on himself. Once, he used ESP to save his very life from a deadly throat infection. After years of experimenting, his mind got so sensitive that he can make "coincidences" happen, read people (even stranger's) thoughts-many times unintentionally. This proves that all consciousness is connected at a deeper level of Mind! He used his ESP to help people and sometimes helping the police to solve crime accurately. (...)

I've had this book in my library for quite some time. It is a classic on the afterlife. A must read for those wanting to know more about spirituality and communication with those on the other side.
