REVIEW - TIME OUT

Is there life after death? Reading this remarkable book may convince even the most hardened sceptic, with its apparently solid scientific evidence for our continuing survival once we have shuffled off this mortal coil. What distinguishes the experiments chronicled here from other attempts to 'prove' that there is an afterlife are the rigorous protocols under which they were carried out. With chance, coincidence and connivance carefully eliminated, spectacular results were still achieved: handwriting, hieroglyphs and messages appearing on factory-sealed film, coins materialising, and lights dancing in front of impartial observers. Written in a calm, precise and dispassionate style, the book comes in advance of 'The Scole Report', which will shortly be published as an official Proceedings of the Society for Psychical Research - SPR. -- Time Out, October 1999

REVIEW - PSYCHIC WORLD

The Scole Experiment describes how physical objects have been passed to the group from the spirit world and tells of visits by solid teleported entities, who speak directly to them. It reports how animated images from other realms and dimensions of life have been captured on sealed video film and contains the results of psychic photography, where images appear on 35mm film. Some of these images are truly remarkable, but none more so than plate 44 [an image taken from video experiment on 28/03/98]. On this picture you can clearly see a man's face wearing glasses in what appears to be a bubble-like sphere, hovering in what looks like crystal formations. Grant and Jane Solomon authors of two best-selling books, Stephen Turoff: Psychic Surgeon and Harry Oldfield's Invisible Universe, have written a compelling account of the pioneering work of the Scole Experimental Group. Intriguing fascinating and convincing. Very highly recommended. -- Psychic World, December 1999.

FROM THE PUBLISHER - UPDATE 2012

The Scole Experiment is now widely regarded as the most important scientific investigation of evidence for life after death in history. Highly-qualified and objective scientists, and a whole range of other people who attended the Scole Group's sessions, came away convinced that (mostly) invisible, discarnate intelligences were making direct contact with those present. It is therefore understandable that the first edition of this book, which chronicled all the events that occurred during the five year experiment, created a great deal of discussion in the national and local media when it was published in the UK in the autumn of 1999. Numerous radio and television programmes ran the story. National newspapers devoted extensive column inches. 'The Times on Sunday' put The Scole Experiment on the front page of its Sunday magazine and the 'Daily Mail' serialised the book in its centre pages over a number of days. A fierce internet debate is raging still. If the evidence is accepted, the implication is simple: we humans do indeed survive the death event in some conscious form. The 2006 edition included an update on the fascinating progress of the continuing experiments involving the Scole mediums. This December 2012 edition includes a further update on the continuing experiments with links and references to the ongoing work of the Scole mediums.
