Why is it that the dead cannot stay away from the living? Holzer answers and presents first-hand evidence for the survival of the human personality after death. From wrapper summary: "Why is it those departed often cannot stay away from the living? How can one communicate with them? Is it wrong? What are some of the pitfalls to avoid when attempting a clear vision of the deceased; and an untroubled reception of messages from beyond? And what is the difference between wishful self-delusion and actual experience? Author and para-psychologist Hans Holzer answers these questions and scores more in these authentic case histories. He provides first hand evidence for the survival of the human personality after 'death.' Hans tells of his contact with famed psychometrist Florence Sternfels a week after her passing; of the Pennsylvania youngster who appeared to his family after committing suicide rather than be sent to Vietnam; of the post-mortem message from actress Vivien Leigh which was received through medium Sybil Leek before Miss Leigh's death had been discovered; of the Michigan student who reached out from the grave to protect his girlfriend; of the M. D. who was visited and warned of impending danger by her departed father; and, dozens of other recent and thoroughly researched American cases where the dead have, by event, coinciding happening, word, or appearance, interacted with the living! Hans Holzer pays particular attention to the mechanics of communication, and each is completely documented as to circumstance, witness's, and potential alternative explanations. In the end, the challenge of whether or not life after death does exist is answered in the affirmative - not philosophically or with faith as basis, but after the gathering of solid evidence. This volume is a uniquely valuable, complete evaluation of the nature of the non-physical world." At the time of publication in 1969, Holzer had been the author of eleven best-selling works on paranormal phenomenon and was soon to present a tv series on extra sensory perception for syndication. He had lectured at many universities, was a member of the College of Psychic Science in London, and the Director of the New York Committee for the Investigation of Paranormal Occurrences.
