John G. Fuller, Souvenir Press, London GB, 1985.  ISBN: 285-62691-4

This is the story of the development of the Spiricom Device.  From the jacket:  Is it possible that, when certain audio frequencies are combined with a tape recorder, the dead can communicate with us, not through a medium but using their own voices? When this theory was first outlined to John Fuller his reaction was skepticism…when a tape was played to him, purporting to be a conversation between a living man and a doctor who had died five years previously, he was …cautious.

If the phenomenon could be proved beyond doubt, the implications were enormous: it could be the biggest break- through in the history of mankind…The group of people involved in the research were no credulous cranks, but level-headed scientists, electronics engineers, physicists, doctors and clergymen – professionals who would not lightly lend their names to an apparently lunatic theory. 

The Scole Experiment: Scientific Evidence for Life After Death

www.thescoleexperiment.com

The Scole Experiment chronicles the extraordinary results of a five year investigation into life after death. At the beginning of 1993, four psychic researchers embarked on a series of experiments in the Norfolk village of Scole. The subsequent events were so astounding that senior members of the prestigious Society for Psychical Research asked to observe, test, and record what took place.

Those who attended the sessions at Scole came away convinced that discarnate intelligences were making direct contact with them.

The incontrovertible evidence they witnessed, included:

• Handwriting, symbols, and messages which appeared on factory sealed, unopened photographic film.

• Objects, lights, and solid beings which materialized before previously skeptical observers.

• Spirits who communicated instructions for the building of complex instruments and communication devices.

• Personal information about those present which was revealed to the group by discarnate intelligences.

The Scole Experiment will convince you that there really is life after death.

‘The investigators... encountered evidence favoring the hypothesis of intelligent forces... able to influence material objects, and to convey associated meaningful messages, both visual and aural.’

Montague Keen, Professor Arthur Ellison, and Professor David Fontana, members of The Society for Psychical Research

‘I had the opportunity to take part in two sessions of the Scole Experimental Group... My own observations as well as later personal reports of my colleagues left me convinced of the genuineness of the phenomena.’

Dr Ernst Senkowski, Experimental Physicist

Voices From the Tapes: Recordings from the Other World

Peter Bander, Drake Publishers Inc., New York, 1973. Initial German Language title: Carry on Talking.

Inside Jacket: Few discoveries have caused a greater controversy then the Voice phenomenon of Raudive and Jurgenson.  Are these really the voice of people whom we know to be dead?  Leading electronics engineers, physicists, and psychologists were invited to carry out controlled experiments…and over 200 messages cam through, among them the voice of the late pianist Artur Schnabel …Peter Hale one of the world’s leading experts in the field of electronic screen suppression carried out an experiment …and afterwards said “ I cannot explain this in normal physical terms.”  Gay Byrne, …was shocked when while preparing a program in which he was to skeptically challenge the authenticity of the Voices, he took part in an experiment which was climaxes by Byrne’s hearing his own recently deceased mother’s voice on tape.

Phone Calls From The Dead

D Scott Rogo and Raymond Bayless, Prentice-Hall, Inc., New Jersey, 1979. ISBN 0-13-664334-5

Book Jacket In October of 1968, Mrs. Don Owens of Ohio received an urgent call for help from a friend.  The time of the call was 10:30 p.m. – the exact time he was pronounced dead at a local hospital.

After a troubling dream about a childhood friend, a New Jersey woman … decided to call her and they chatted for some time.  When Marie tried to call her again several days later, she was informed that her friend had died a full six months earlier.

Are these actual phone calls from the dead…two highly respected, veteran parapsychologists – undertook and intense two-year investigation into this puzzling phenomenon…Rogo and Bayless conclude that these enigmatic phone calls actually do occur – and are probably more common than most people would like to think.  Furthermore, it appears that these calls are only one form of contact in a long history of inexplicable electronic phenomena.

Surviving Death, Evidence of the Afterlife

by Geoff Viney, St Martin’s Press, New York, N.Y. 1994 ISBN 0-312-10436-7

From Back Cover: Psychic researcher Geoff Viney provides a fascinating new look at the reality of life after death – through examination of scientific evidence, psychic phenomena, and myth. What really happens when we die?  Perhaps no other question has so obsessed people since the beginning of time.  Although skeptics claim that death represents the absolute extinction of life, there is overwhelming evidence that proves otherwise.  In presenting this evidence, Geoff Viney puts the concept of death itself on trail, using as his witnesses the countless individuals who have experienced some sort of personal contact with the afterlife, contact that has resulted in momentous changes in the quality of their own lives.

In much the same way that Raymond Moody’s Life After Life brought renewed hope to those who read it, Geoff Viney’s Surviving Death – by revealing in fascinating detail people’s amazing, real encounters with the “supernatural” – offers a new alternative to the age-old definition of death.

Breakthrough: An Amazing Experiment in Electronic Communication with the Dead

Konstantin Raudive, New York: Taplinger, 1971.

This is the book that brought information about EVP to the public. Voice phenomena were accidentally discovered in Sweden by Friedrich Jürgenson in 1957.  Jürgenson showed Raudive how to record the voices and the book is the results of six years of research into the phenomena.  A dead persons voice appears during playbacks of tape recordings on which no such voices were audible at the time of the original recording. These voices often state their names and may be identified as male or female, but all speak very much faster than is normal and employ a curious speech rhythm.

In the course of his research, Dr Raudive was joined by eminent scientists, physicists, psychologists, and theologians, many of whom were university professors. Before undertaking the publication of this English-language edition, the publishers have requested other respected scientists and scholars to verify procedures and findings related in Dr Raudive’s book. The discovery of this phenomenon – later called the Electronic Voice Phenomenon – is a breakthrough of unquestionable importance.

Conversations Beyond the Light

Griffin Publishing, Dr. Pat Kubis and Mark Macy, Irvine, CA, in conjunction with Continuing Life Research, Boulder, CO, 1995ISBN 1-882180-47-X  (Hard to find maybe expensive

What would happen if the information highway and the network of sophisticated communications systems we have today were able to hook us up with the world beyond? That remarkably is exactly what this book says happened in the 1990’s. Instrumental Transcommunication (ITC) is a term used to describe this communication through all kinds of instruments between researchers on earth and a group in the Beyond who call themselves Timestream Station. Research teams on Earth received communications from these colleagues in the spirit worlds through video images, computerized messages, and even telephone calls.
 

Miracles in the Storm

Mark H. Macy, New American Library, New York, New York, 2001 ISBN 0-451-20471-9

From book cover: Over the centuries many psychics and seers have communicated with the other side.  But until the revolutionary, new technique of Instrumental Transcommunication (ITC) was developed, no one could approach the purity of contact now under way with the Beyond and with divine beings who convey their messages of infinite wisdom and peace.  Mark H. Macy was an agnostic until a brush with death se him on a spiritual search in the 1980’s.  He learned about the miracles of ITC – personal letters planted mysteriously in computers by invisible hands, images from other realms flashing across TV screens …And when a voice from Beyond came through a radio with a long , personal greeting, Macy’s skeptical mind had the proof it required to believe.

The Afterlife Experiments, Breakthrough Scientific Evidence of Life After Death

Schwartz, Gary, Ph.D. and William L. Simon, Pocket Star, New York, 2002 ISBN: B0001I1KN2

About the Book: An esteemed scientist's personal journey from skepticism to wonder and awe provides astonishing answers to a timeless question: Is there life after death?

Are love and life eternal? This exciting account presents provocative evidence that could upset everything that science has ever taught. Daring to risk his worldwide academic reputation, Dr. Gary E. Schwartz, along with his research partner Dr. Linda Russek, asked some of the most prominent mediums in America -- including John Edward, Suzane Northrup, and George Anderson -- to become part of a series of extraordinary experiments to prove, or disprove, the existence of an afterlife.

This narrative puts the reader on the scene of a breakthrough scientific achievement: contact with the beyond under controlled laboratory conditions. In stringently monitored experiments, leading mediums attempted to contact dead friends and relatives of "sitters" who were masked from view and never spoke, depriving the mediums of any cues. The messages that came through stunned sitters and researchers alike. Dr. Schwartz was forced by overwhelmingly positive data to abandon his skepticism and reached some startling conclusions.
