A RECENT REVIEW OF "A LAWYER PRESENTS THE EVIDENCE
FOR THE AFTERLIFE"
This book is of tremendous value and highly
recommended. I am a researcher and history professor, and,
with the many available titles on this topic, I am selective
about what I purchase. This particular book is one that I
found to be very worthwhile, for research purposes, and for
personal reasons because Victor Zammit summarizes the scholarship
in every essential and important area of afterlife studies.
The book is meticulous about presenting sources, supplying
the reader with the most up to date scientific and historical
evidence, thus allowing one to research further.
I do not believe that it is necessary for this book to delve
into all of the skeptic criticisms of mediums, when the odds
of those mediums being correct is already extraordinary, and
especially when this book is already over three hundred pages.
The hastily constructed views of skeptics on Wikipedia are
simply not worth reading, so I am glad that the book simply
focuses on what is valid, scientifically proven and fascinating
to know.
For example, I found the chapter on remote viewing in the
United States, China and the U.S.S.R. eye opening and most
interesting, as Zammit provides the evidence of documentation
by government officials, as gathered by scholars.
Information about After Death Communication is likewise, explained
thoroughly through a detailed summary of the work of scholars
from the 1880s to the 2010s.
While Victor Zammit provides solid scholarly evidence, the
book is easy to read and comforting. For example, Zammit reiterates
Raymond Moody’s suggestion, that a bereaved person can
talk to the loved one lost, rather than relying entirely on
a therapist.
Examples of different types of contact with departed loved
ones is relayed to the reader with a summary of numerous studies
that I had not been aware of and appreciated learning about.
A chapter about the dream state was especially illuminating.
When a person passes over, according to numerous accounts
presented by Zammit, they go to a world that is as solid as
the one they left, and those they left behind on earth visit
them in their dreams.
In summary, this is a very worthwhile
book to own. It is superbly written, well researched, and
comforting to read.
