Signs of Reincarnation

In this episode I'm talking to Jim Matlock about his book 'Signs of Reincarnation: Exploring Beliefs, Cases, and Theory'

Signs of Reincarnation provides the first comprehensive look at the belief in reincarnation and the evidence for past lives from historical records, anthropological studies, and contemporary research. Matlock discusses various ways the evidence may be interpreted and shows that although reincarnation entails a rejection of the materialist notion that consciousness is generated by the brain, it does not require the acceptance of any radically new concepts or the abandonment of well-established findings in mainstream psychology or biology. This book offers students, scholars, and anyone interested in the possibility of reincarnation an essential grounding in beliefs, cases, and theory, while opening doors for future research into the extension of consciousness beyond our present lives.

He has served as Treasurer for the Society for the Anthropology of Consciousness, a unit of the American Anthropological Association.
Matlock has published numerous papers and book chapters on reincarnation and related topics, co-authored a book on children’s past lives in 2016 and wrote a solo book providing an overview of reincarnation research in 2019. He writes and edits for the Psi Encyclopedia, having produced more than 31 articles on reincarnation.
