ABSTRACT
There is an extensive literature on the ostensible evidence for survival of bodily death and it will only be possible to touch on a very small part of it. A much longer, but still very incomplete, list of references is given by Gauld (1977). Among general surveys of the material the following may be especially noted: Myers (1903 – the great early classic), Hart (1959), Salter (1961), Ducasse (1961), Beard (1966), Jacobson (1973), Gauld (1982), Lorimer (1984), Thouless (1984), Edge (1986), Almeder (1992), Coly and McMahon (1995), Paterson (1995), Roy (1996) and Griffin (1997) and Braude (2003).
