Most people are searching for the meaning of their lives when it often does not appear to have meaning. The cases cited by Dr. Jarmon reveal the ultimate lessons of the soul's journey. This book not only reveals the soul of the patient but also the soul of the physician. Many of us do not have the privilege to see the soulful side of the healers who struggle to help their patients heal and to grow in spirit. It is time for medicine to recover and to reveal its soul.

This book is as good as a Brian Weiss book. It gave me validity in believing reincarnation. It reveals true cases from Dr. Jarmon's patients...simply amazing! If you are on a spiritual path read this book.

I'd like to remark that the previous reviewer assumes guilt, which may or may not be the case. Dr. Jarmon's license to practice medicine has been restored, although he is no longer in psychiatry. As a former patient of his, I found him to be a fine therapist with very clear doctor-patient boundaries. Discovering the Soul was fascinating, but I can see how people already very familiar with the subject might not appreciate the book.

This book offers an excellent insight into how the soul affects our daily lives and how it is affected by our lives. I found the book very inspiring and meaningful.

If you're considering purchasing this book, I recommend that you first borrow a copy to read. Be advised that Dr. Jarmon's license to practice psychiatry in the State of New Jersey was suspended in December 2001 for unprofessional conduct. Despite this, if you don't mind contributing to the royalties that the author is receiving from this publication, at least your decision to purchase it will be an informed one.

There is absolutely nothing new in this book that hasn't been around for centuries. The Spiritual Frontiers lending library thirty years ago had books with better insight on the subjects covered in this book. Thought a psychiatirst might bring something else into the studies. NOT!!!!!
