In a style that is both philosophically sophisticated and accessible to general readers, Robert Almeder introduces readers to the vigorous debate in the scientific community about the possibility of personal survival after death. He argues that belief in some form of personal survival is as empirically justifiable as our belief in the past existence of dinosaurs. Drawing on 21 of the best case studies in reincarnation, apparitions of the dead, ostensible possession, out-of-body experiences, and trance mediumships, Death and Personal Survival offers a comprehensive discussion of the best empirical evidence in each of these areas and refutes alternative explanations offered by sceptics.
Sudduth provides a critical exploration of classical empirical arguments for survival arguments that purport to show that data collected from ostensibly paranormal phenomena constitute good evidence for the survival of the self after death. Utilizing the conceptual tools of formal epistemology, he argues that classical arguments are unsuccessful.

Well received in its first edition, Survival Analysis: A Practical Approach is completely revised to provide an accessible and practical guide to survival analysis techniques in diverse environments. Illustrated with many authentic examples, the book introduces basic statistical concepts and methods to construct survival curves, later developing them to encompass more specialised and complex models. During the years since the first edition there have been several new topics that have come to the fore and many new applications. Parallel developments in computer software programmes, used to implement these methodologies, are relied upon throughout the text to bring it up to date.
Professor James H. Hyslop (1854-1920), psychologist and prominent member of the American Society for Psychical Research, presents in this volume an in-depth analysis of the possibility of survival of individual consciousness after the physical death of the human body. Hyslop describes the various ideas man has had towards the afterlife throughout the centuries up to the present day, and carefully weighs these conceptions against the evidence we may have for personal survival. Many problems are discussed at length, from the process of communicating with the departed, to the possible relationship between spirit possession and cases of dissociative identity disorder. First published in 1918, Hyslop's uncompromising and passionate defense of the evidence for survival is a classic of psychic research, and is still just as relevant today as when it first appeared.
