Summary: Excellent interpretation of a difficult subject.
Review: Dr. Weiss is a professional scientific writer who after coming accross a subject matter that he has not encountered in the past gives an articulate and accurate presentation of the experience.It follows very closely to other books on this subject but is much better written and with less editorializing. If you allow your perspective to be expanded, it nicely ties together a number of religious dogma which we encounter in our every day lives. You will enjoy it.

Summary: Something that finally makes sense
Review: Dr. Weiss' book is one of the most affirming books that I have ever read. It reveals to us what religions have decided to eliminate....we are all immortal souls! This does not relieve us of responsibility but affirms the need to be a student throughout our lives. This book reveals the ultimate truth that we are everyman and he is us. As the world grows smaller it is necessary for all of us to be compassionate towards every human being and to become caretakers of the earth that we all share. It is our University of Our Soul. We need each other and provide experiences for our souls to progress towards its eventual reunion with the universal SOUL. Dr. Weiss has been selected to help give us this message. How appropriate in this age of Science that the message comes to us from a physician, not a cleric or theologian.

Summary: Sceptics beware!
Review: This book shows the journey taken by a man of science who is thrust into the world of spirituality. Dr. Weiss takes us with him through his own journey from shock and disbelief to understanding. His conclusions are well-reasoned, but unverifiable. Hopefully a begininning to knowing more about where we come from...

Summary: Fascinating but poorly documented.
Review: I have always had an open mind on issues of the world beyond the physical realm. Because of that, I found this book to be fascinating. I am not offended at the suggestions and implications of Dr. Weiss's book and I do not find them to be at odds with religious or moralistic issues. I just had one serious problem with this book. This book is totally undocumented and fully narrated as if it is a novel. If Dr. Weiss was trying to convince anyone of a higher truth, in my opinion, he should have tried to make his point more concrete by providing at least certain traces of systematic documentation. For instance, provide the dates of the hypnoses. Perhaps even, donating the supporting tapes of his hypnotherapy to a University to be archived (even if the name of the patient had to be changed to protect her confidentiality). I would like to think anyone that has had some university level education (and has been published in "37" academic journals) would know how important it is to support facts or claims with proper citation. Why hasn't Dr. Weiss provided references to specific published works by the many published therapists he has mentioned by name? Why not reveal the source of his information asserting that in early Christianity, reincarnation was commonly accepted? Why not investigate the past lives of Catherine to see if her descriptions of the clothing, food, culture, and events of her past lives were consistent with the documented history of those eras? If the "Masters" have trusted the author with such a great responsibility, why hasn't the author been responsible enough to be convincing to those whom are not easily convinced? Did not the "Poet Master" tell the doctor that we need to blend with people of various circles to learn and to teach? This book is for readers whom already have a propensity to believe Dr. Weiss's assertions, but for all other readers, this book is a fascinating short story.

Summary: Many Lives? or Many Lies?
Review: through the book, the author keeps telling you how skeptic and scientific he is, and yet, this book seems to be the work of someone with an English literature rather than with a science background. How do the people from the 18th century knows that they are from the 18th century? how can the woman tell that someone were her friends in the present life, they look identical or what? The authors doesn't even ask questions like this , he simply keeps writing this book of fantasy. it's not a bad book, if the approach is has been more scientific.

Summary: An amazing account of past-life therapy
Review: This is one of those books that truly gets your attention. It covers the amazing possibilities that we do have past lives and connecting with them can help solve some of our problems and phobias. This book is truly for the open-minded people who aren't closed to spiritual beliefs. I was left in a state of amazement and so has everyone I past the book on to.

Summary: a credible story about the incredible
Review: I try to read at least two or three books a month. But at the pace I read this book, I could go up to 8 or 10. I read Many Lives, Many Masters in less than 3 days, which for me is very quick. I read Talking to Heaven before I read this one so I was predisposed to many of the underlying themes mentioned in Weiss' book. Credibility was not a barrier, I have an open mind but not a gulliable one. I recommend this book to anyone who is willing to challenge their everyday beliefs about life because this book will certainly do that.

Summary: The most amazing book I have every read....again and again
Review: I have always believed in reincarnation and that I have "been here before". People who I meet and instantly feel a connection to...places I visited and felt totally at home, like I had lived there at some point. This book has reinforced my belief in reincarnation and has eased some of the fear of death that I have had for most of my life. Read this book...and I'll bet you won't be able to put it down either AND that you will read it more than once....

Summary: Phenomenal
Review: This is one of the most wonderful books that I've ever read. It inspired to me pursue past life therapy for myself to heal my chronic depression and improve my low self-worth. It made such a difference in my lfe that I became a certified hpnotherapist and I now do past life therapy with people so I can help heal others like I have been healed. This new therapy will definately change the world and the way people look at life. I've never known what true happiness is until now and I can thank Dr.Weiss for the wonderful change it made in my life and what an inspiration the book has been for me.

Summary: Riveting!
Review: Brian L. Weiss delves into the human mind and reveals to us that there is life after death. His initial disbelief at his own discovery makes it easier for one to believe. I highly recommend this book to everyone.
