5.0 out of 5 stars Beautifully written, an excellent and tender companion January 22, 2001
By Marva Smith
Format:Paperback
This is a warm and enticing journey leading from the past into the future. This book draws you in and transports you to another level of reality with the most amazing insights and explanations of how our belief system was molded and the culture of the western world was shaped, based mainly on religious and scientific ideas. In simple and concise language a very beautiful picture of a bygone era was painted with loving care and a tender sense of humour. Then, in profound and graphic detail, a most brilliant future was depicted for all of us to look forward to.

This book can be used as a bridge to marry all the wonderful ideas espoused in Seth's books. A most invigorating and soothing work.

I am eternally grateful to Jane Roberts and Robert Butts for devoting their lives to this work, they have done so many of us an enormous service.

5.0 out of 5 stars How to think, instead of What to think August 14, 2001
By wayne
Format:Paperback
Perhaps the most profound single book I've ever read..... James/Jane's brilliant treatise on the combined effect of the distorted fictions of Freud, Darwin, and Western religion is worth the price of the book alone. The last three chapters are some of the most inspiring material ever written. Should be required reading for those who worship assumptions.

5.0 out of 5 stars As good as any Seth book July 30, 2001
By Shawn Regan
Format:Paperback
This is a great book and belongs in the library of any Seth enthusiast. The information is terrific and presents many of Seth's ideas from a "lower than Seth" perspective but still higher than our physical perspective but closer than Seth's.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Profound Afterdeath Writing of William James November 13, 2008
By Zadius Sky
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
"The Afterdeath Journal of an American Philosopher" is an intriguing read and full of insights. I would have to admit that I only read one of Roberts' previous works, that of The Nature of Personal Reality (great book), and I didn't fully grasped Seth's teachings.

However, this book is indeed a profound writing of William James and his insightful perceptive after his death. I am rather fond of James' writings, and this book really increases James' influences on my thinking.

Roberts truly did a wonderful job in translating James' thoughts, after his death, into this book, and I would certainly recommend it.

5.0 out of 5 stars Incredible! September 25, 2011
By Liquessence
Format:Hardcover|Amazon Verified Purchase
This is the best book I have read in a long time, and I read a lot all the time. It sparkles with keen intelligence, stunning insight and amazingly beautiful writing.

I've known about Jane Roberts and Seth since the late 70s and have read all the Seth books, but it's only recently that I've been reading her other books, the non-Seth books, and am finding them truly amazing.

In this book, Jane Roberts tunes into William James (the American philosopher) after his death. He is in the in-between stage where many people go when they die. There they synthesize their earth life, learn and plan their next incarnation . . .

William James starts off by looking at himself as he was in life from his new perspective. He, later on, compares this perspective as coming from the person who is now the adult, compared to the child he was on earth -- his view is that expanded and that mature comparatively speaking. He describes his earth psychology from this new, broader perspective. Then he goes on to talk about the entire 19th century climate, social, political, psychological (with the emergence of Freud), religious and spiritual.

His descriptions of Boston and the seances he attended (he was interested in the paranormal and attended seances as a way to glimpse into other realities), are the writing of a master. His insights as to the entire earth climate are eye-opening.

The latter part of the book he devotes to talking about where he is and what he is learning.

The book is filled with a sense of wonder at how miraculous and good creation really is and his regret that he didn't see that when he was alive (being melancholy and overly intellectual).... Read more ›

5.0 out of 5 stars What I've learned since I died November 7, 2011
By Michael J Ross
Format:Hardcover|Amazon Verified Purchase
William James was an American philosopher that live around 1900. He was famous for investigating and revealing physic fraud. He was also on a quest to find true psychics. Jane and her husband Robert took an interest in him. They decided to see if she could receive any communication from him, as she did with Seth. It ended up with the publication of this book. In it, WJ talks about what he has learned since he died; how his beliefs have changed and much more. Even if you read it as a fiction, you will enjoy it and it will make you think.
