Immortal Remains: The Evidence for Life After Death

Stephen E. Braude
4.9/5 (24100 ratings)
Description:Chances are you're either too willing, or too unwilling, to believe personal consciousness survives death. Some underestimate the evidence, not realizing how impressive the most convincing cases are. Others overestimate, rejecting alternative explanations too readily. In fact, several non-survivalist explanations (hidden or latent linguistic or artistic talents, extreme memory & psychic abilities) are as interesting as the survival hypothesis & may be more plausible. Immortal Remains looks at some of the puzzling cases & considers how to tell evidence for an afterlife from evidence for exotic things done by the living. Braude, who's done much research in parapsychology & dissociation, explores previously ignored issues about dissociation, creativity, linguistic skills, & the nature & limits of human abilities. He concludes we've some reason for believing in life after death.Survival & Personal Identity Survival & Anomalous Knowledge The "Super-Psi" Hypothesis What Else Is Wrong with the Literature on SurvivalDrop-In Communicators Outline of the Issues The Cagliostro Case Runki's Leg: The CaseRunki's Leg: Theoretical Considerations & Nagging ConcernsTrance Mediumship Outline of Mrs Piper's MediumshipExamples of Mrs Piper's MediumshipMrs Leonard's Mediumship Mediumship & Super-ESP Survival & the Causal NexusThe Cross-Correspondences The Case of Sharada: Psychopathology & XenoglossyOutline of the Case Objections to Stevenson's ReportAkolkar's ReportSuper-Psi & Knowledge-How Xenoglossy & Dissociation The Case of Patience Worth Pearl Curran's Background The History, Style & Personality of Patience WorthWriting Samples The Theoretical ChallengeNon-Survivalist Conjectures Latency & Creativity: The Case of Helene SmithOther Cases of Mediumistic Creativity Survivalist Conjectures Reincarnation & PossessionThe Case of Bishen ChandA Recent Early-Bird CaseThe Antonia Case The Sumitra/Shiva Case The Thompson-Gifford CaseLingering Spirits Haunting: PreliminariesHaunting: CommentsTransplant Cases Transplant Cases: CommentsOut-of-Body Experiences Why Externalism?
