5.0 out of 5 stars Great way to identify what's "real" from imagination..., June 5, 2002

By A Customer

This review is from: Ghosts, Spirits, and Hauntings (Paperback)

The thing I love about this book is it is NOT a ghost story book but a "how to" (which the reviewer below might have gathered from the back cover copy). The idea is to show readers how to recognize what might be a psychic imprint, what may be a ghost, and would could be nature.. all very good bits of wisdom and logic by which to judge uncommon situations. I love this approach - there's been enough ghost stories in the world. This is about dealing with ghosts and hauntings proactively!

5.0 out of 5 stars Things go Bump.. or do they?, December 12, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Ghosts, Spirits, and Hauntings (Paperback)

A very balanced look at ghosts and hauntings, including loads of information for skeptics and believers alike. From the various types of ghosts believed to exist to ghostly imposters that fool our senses - this book covers it all.

5.0 out of 5 stars A useful guide of the spirits, November 9, 2001

By A Customer

This review is from: Ghosts, Spirits, and Hauntings (Paperback)

The book helped me to differentiate the spirits from other phaenomena not caused by them. It is an aid in this wide subject, neatly written and wonderfully explained. It also provides alternative explanations for the phaenomena from an sceptical point of view as well as practical advice when facing ghosts or spirits.

I have only one complain bout it: I had expected it to be far thicker!
