About this ebook

From author and psychotherapist Dr. Brian Weiss comes the classic New York Times bestseller on the true case of the past-life therapy that changed the lives of both the prominent psychiatrist and young patient involved—now featuring a new afterword by the author.

As a traditional psychotherapist, Dr. Brian Weiss was astonished and skeptical when one of his patients began recalling past-life traumas that seemed to hold the key to her recurring nightmares and anxiety attacks. His skepticism was eroded, however, when she began to channel messages from the “space between lives,” which contained remarkable revelations about Dr. Weiss’ family and his dead son. Using past-life therapy, he was able to cure the patient and embark on a new, more meaningful phase of his own career. With more than one million copies in print, Many Lives, Many Masters is one of the breakthrough texts in alternative psychotherapy and remains as provocative and timeless as it was when first published.

Ratings and reviews

After reading the books of doctor Michael Newton (who was the pioneer in this technique) I found this book of doct. Weiss very new agey n even boring in the looong descriptions of every words said during the trance (he doesn't summarise!). I really find doc Newton's books much better, more detailed the infos, n he summarises!

Not sure how I feel about this book. It was a very interesting read and quite thought provoking. I have an open mind and I suppose one day I will discover the truth for myself. Not a bad way to live a life. Treat others as you yourself would want to be treated. Something I have taught my children their whole lives.

Too many inconsistencies and all very idealistic. Now none of us need to strive for any of our goals as the Master's are in control. Not sure at all about this book.
