Children and past lives

Stevenson's tradition continues, even though he's passed on. This book by Tom Schroeder, Old Souls, definitely wins for having the worst cover of any book in reincarnation research. But Schroeder is an interesting guy. He's a Pulitzer Prize-winning reporter; he's one of the editors for The Washington Post, a major American newspaper. He wanted...

Winifred Lucas, also now passed, was foundational in past lives therapy, aiming to establish a clinical protocol. Her work was primarily for professionals, though approachable. Stevenson's...
