520 _a"In a book that will fascinate skeptics and supporters alike, Tom Shroder reveals one of the untold stories of our time. It is the story of thousands of young children who speak of remembering previous lives. They provide detailed, accurate, and emotionally laden information about people who died before they were born, people they claim they once were. Dr. Ian Stevenson, who holds an endowed professorship at the University of Virginia, has been traveling the world for thirty-seven years to investigate and document more than two thousand of these phenomenal cases. Despite voluminous and meticulously detailed scholarly reports, and the respect of an enthusiastic group of colleagues, Professor Stevenson's life's work has until now remained essentially unknown to the world at large." "It took years for Tom Shroder to persuade Dr. Stevenson, now eighty, to allow him to observe his field research - first in Lebanon, then India, and finally the American South - the first journalist ever to have that privilege." "Shroder, who began his journey as a hardened skeptic, quickly comes face to face with concrete evidence that, try as he might, he cannot discount."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.
