Time Out, October 1999
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.
Psychic World, Decmeber 1999
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.
