Amazon.com Psychiatry and metaphysics blend together in this fascinating book based on a true case history. Dr. Weiss, who was once firmly entrenched in a clinical approach to psychiatry, finds himself reluctantly drawn into past-life therapy when a hypnotized client suddenly reveals details of her previous lives. During one hypnosis session his client introduces the spirit guides who have been her soul therapists in between lives. This is when the story really takes off for Weiss, who discovers that these guides have specific messages about his dead son as well as Weiss's mission in life. No, we cannot verify the truth of this story using the limited scientific tools we have available. However, it is hard to dispute that this well-respected graduate of Columbia University and Yale Medical School has discovered a personal truth that has led him to be an enormously popular speaker, author, and leader in the field of past-life therapy. --Gail Hudson

Fascinating book! July 25, 2008 I know I read this book many years ago but I had forgotten how good it was until I re-read it recently. It's absolutely fascinating. The work this doctor has done and the story of this patient's life (or should I say lives...) is truly remarkable. It really makes you think and opens up all kinds of possibilities about the life of your own soul and the souls of your loved ones. I found the book and the message it carried very comforting.
for the scientific minded like me July 16, 2008 0 out of 1 found this review helpful
maybe it could be a good idea to read this book, then read "Twenty Cases Suggestive of Reincarnation" by Ian Stevenson and then come back to this book....
Dr Stevenson's work is 100% purely scientific and fits better with our left brain...
Absolute worthwhile read! July 14, 2008 I've long been interested in reincarnation, and found this book to be fascinating! Dr. Weiss is extremely credible, and presents his experiences in a matter-of-fact manner, sharing his own initial disbelief and how he became convinced that what was happening was real.
I don't particularly believe it. July 7, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I've read several books on reincarnation. Each have different stories and beliefs. At first, I believed this book 100%. Dr. Weiss wrote the book very well. I, personally, believe in life after death and reincarnation. However, Dr. Weiss seems a bit gullible. The more that I think about it, the more unrealistic it seems. This has been brought up a lot in reviews. But in Chapter 3, Catherine states that the year is "1863 B.C". There is no way that she could have known that it was before Christ, even if her present mind put that in, she was still expieriencing a past life. In chapter 9, she described the planes she was flying "Some type of chopper plane. It has four propellers. It's a fixed wing." If she was really "Eric" at the time, then she would have known the EXACT model of the plain, in order to pilot it. Dr. Weiss said he was amused at her knowledge, saying she didn't know about it in her present lifetime, but he doesn't know Catherine out of the office, does he? He only meets her in the office, he would have no way of knowing if she knew this or not. Also, the "Masters" seem a bit phony to me. They wouldn't just speak specifically to Weiss if they were these great spiritual beings. There are also no other accounts of these "Masters". And I don't believe she would be able to recall this state at all. In my opinion, I believe that Catherine has Multiple Personality Disorder. He didn't research what Catherine said at all, that would have helped a lot in the book. As for the study of reincarnation, I believe it. But Catherine, I do not. I also believe that past life regression can be used as a tool to help get rid of anxieties and fears. But I think that Dr. Weiss is too open-minded and I think he just wants to be named as someone to make an important discovery. He should have researched his facts more in order to make this book plausible.

Having spent years researching how we plan our lives before we're born, I've read many books about past lives and reincarnation. Few are as touching or offer as much insight as this book. A true classic. -Robert Schwartz, author of Courageous Souls: Do We Plan Our Life Challenges Before Birth?
