Reincarnation and Biology: A Contribution to the Etiology of Birthmarks and Birth Defects
About This Book
Stevenson's most controversial and scientifically rigorous work — a two-volume study of 225 cases in which children's birthmarks or birth defects correspond to wounds received by the person whose life they claim to remember. The cases are documented with medical records, autopsy reports, and photographs, providing physical evidence for the reincarnation hypothesis that goes far beyond verbal testimony. The methodological standards are those of medical research rather than spiritualist investigation.
What You'll Learn
Birthmarks and birth defects that correspond precisely to the wounds — especially wounds of death — of a previous personality constitute the most compelling and physically verifiable evidence for reincarnation that has yet been documented. The probability that these correspondences are coincidental is, in many cases, astronomically small — the location, shape, and sometimes colour of birthmarks match documented wounds with a precision that demands explanation. This evidence suggests that some aspect of the personality — and not only memory — survives physical death and influences the formation of the next physical body.
