More Lives Than One? Evidence of the Remarkable Bloxham Tapes by Jeffrey Iverson - gebunden oder broschiert

From the inside cover. Under hypnosis with Arnall Bloxham, one of the most respected hypnotherapists in Britain, a Welsh housewife describes in minute detail six quite separate previous lives: as a wife of a tutor in Roman times; as a Jew during the twelfth century massacre of Jews in York; as a serving girl to a French medieval merchant prince; as a maid of honour to Catherine of Aragon; as a poor sewing girl in the London of Queen Ann, and finally as a nun in America. Her story is only one among the unique collection of tape recordings made by Arnall Bloxham of regressions by four hundred men and woman under hypnosis over the past twenty years. They might have remained undiscovered if Jeffery Iverson, a Cardiff television producer, had not heard them and become so fascinated that he spent over a year investigating them, trying to solve the riddle: are they a series of strange historical fantasies? Or real evidence that the ancient belief in reincarnation is not superstition but fact? More Lives Than One? Reads like a detective story. The author tracks down the location of his subjects' stories and plays the tapes to psychiatrists and professors of history. Eventually the eighty eight year old hypnotist repeated some of the regressions so that they could be witnessed and recorded on film - these are now part of a BBC filmed documentary.
