Product Description:


John Edward, Suzane Northrup, and George Anderson are just a few of the prominent American mediums who have been accused of being frauds. But what if a respected scientist challenged them to make contact with the beyond under controlled laboratory conditions? What if the results not only stunned a skeptical scientist but also offered astonishing answers to a timeless question: Is there life after death?

THE AFTERLIFE EXPERIMENTS

Risking his academic reputation, Dr. Gary E. Schwartz asked well-known mediums to become part of a series of experiments to prove, or disprove, the existence of an afterlife. This riveting narrative, with electrifying transcripts, documents stringently monitored experiments in which mediums attempted to contact dead friends and relatives of 'sitters' who were masked from view and never spoke, depriving the mediums of any cues.

Here are the results that awed sitters and researchers alike: a revelation about a son's suicide, what a deceased father wanted to say about his last days in a coma, the transformation of a man's lifelong doubts about the afterlife, and, most amazing of all, a forecast of a beloved spouse's death. Forced by data to abandon skepticism, Schwartz presents this amazing account of his groundbreaking work, compelling from first page to last.

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Proof of the Afterlife
If you have any doubt about life after death, read this book, plus Tom Schroder's book "Old Souls." Both have the scientific experiments to prove it. Both are super easy to read despite including scientific methods along with the stories of how things unfolded.

InTthe Afterlife Experiments, scientist Gary Schwartz takes great pains to perfect the experiments to such a degree that would rule out fraud unless there were a conspiracy among five mediums to tap the phones, find out who the ... Read More



Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - SAVE YOU'RE MONEY
OK, SO I READ THIS BOOK EVEN THOUGH I HAD TO FORCE MYSELF TO FINISH IT. BUT FOR THE LIFE OF ME I DON'T SEE WHERE THIS 'BREAKTHOUGH SCIENTFIC EVIDENCE' IS. ITS JUST 5 MEDIUMS DOING READINGS IN A CONTROLLED ENVIROMENT. THEY DO READINGS WHERE THEY NEVER MEET THE SITTER, NEVER SEE, NOR HEAR THEM. BUT I WILL SAY THAT ONE THING THIS BOOK DOES IS IT MAKES YOU WONDER WHERE THE MEDIUMS ARE GETTING THEIR INFORMATION FROM. THOUGH THE INFORMATION THEY 'RETRIVE' TO ME IS NOT CONVINCING. I NEED SOMETHING MORE. I ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Recommended
Dr. Schwartz has worked with noted mediums such as George Anderson, John Edward, and Suzanne Northrop, as well as mediums with shorter professional practice.

His work is often cited as something that might approach a scientific "proof" of afterlife, mediumship contact, similar to what Dr. Ian Stevenson performed in his work related to the topic of reincarnation associated with the Univeristy of Virginia.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Great book for scientific evidence to the paranormal
This book shows how hard it is to scientifically prove that there is an afterlife, but they do it well and the book was very helpful for my niece and myself to understand the paranormal.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Scientific Evidence of our Life after Death
What is valuable about this book is that two very skeptical scientists decided to try to prove that there is an after life and that souls on the other side can communicate with us here and now if we listen.

As a practical engineer who only gets paid if what I design works, I was impressed with the design of the experiments (that proved for me that people like John Edward are the real deal) and also with their reluctance to tell people what they were doing until they could not ignore the ...
