Psychiatry and metaphysics blend together in this fascinating book based on a true case history. Dr. Weiss, who was once firmly entrenched in a clinical approach to psychiatry, finds himself reluctantly drawn into past-life therapy when a hypnotized client suddenly reveals details of her previous lives. During one hypnosis session his client introduces the spirit guides who have been her soul therapists in between lives. This is when the story really takes off for Weiss, who discovers that these guides have specific messages about his dead son as well as Weiss's mission in life. No, we cannot verify the truth of this story using the limited scientific tools we have available. However, it is hard to dispute that this well-respected graduate of Columbia University and Yale Medical School has discovered a personal truth that has led him to be an enormously popular speaker, author, and leader in the field of past-life therapy. --Gail Hudson
Product Description
As a traditional psychotherapist, Dr. Brian Weiss was astonished and skeptical when one of his patients began recalling past-life traumas that seemed to hold the key to her recurring nightmares and anxiety attacks. His skepticism was eroded, however, when she began to channel messages from the "space between lives," which contained remarkable revelations about Dr. Weiss' family and his dead son. Using past-life therapy, he was able to cure the patient and embark on a new, more meaningful phase of his own career.

Having spent years researching how we plan our lives before we're born, I've read many books about past lives and reincarnation. Few are as touching or offer as much insight as this book. A true classic.

The most surprising thing to me about anything Spiritual, is how long it takes the scientific communities to "get it". Edgar Cayce wrote several books about this at least 20 years earlier. But for some idiotic reason, this news always seems to have more credibility coming from PhDs.
Reading about how occurrences in people's past lives carry forward and have implications in their current lives is fascinating. When it happens to non-believers, including the MD, it's even better.
If you wear your paradigm like a tight pair of underwear, this book will be too incredulous for you. If your mind is open, this is one you cannot miss reading.

read on a subject that many people will find challenges their core beliefs. It has for me, although I have experienced hints while doing genealogy research in cemeteries or at public memorials. I also had a near death experience when very young and this has shed light on fears and habits.
The book is at little "repetitive" at times, but it helps to open your mind in a simple way. At times he is simplistic and over indulgent in his role. This is simply theory based upon single evidence.
It has inspired me enough to look into his other books and those of others such as Raymond Moody.
Simple but worth the read.
a credible book from a scientist June 20, 2008

Here's a book from an author with impeccable scientific credentials. He's not trying to convert you, just reporting the facts as stated by his patients.

I became bored after reading midway through the book. A question arised as to the validity of some of the statements of one of the patients. Such as "winning all the races in one day." Any proof here? Also, most of the regressed patients could have saved in their minds material usurped from television and other readings. I recognized many of the prior regressed years, clothing, community, area of the country, and geographies just from what I already know. Nothing new here. I found the material boring. Nothing really special in any of their regressions.
Also, I paid for a new book and received a damaged front cover.
