JACOBSON, Nils O. Life Without Death: On Parapsychology, Mysticism and the Question of Survival.

(London): Turnstone Books, 1974.  First UK edition.  Hardcover.  22.3cm by 14cm.  viii, 339 pages.  Translated from the Swedish by Shelia La Farge.   A serious exploration by a Swedish psychiatrist of whether consciousness survives bodily death. Jacobson examines contemporary research in parapsychology (telepathy, clairvoyance, mediumship) alongside mystical experiences and altered states of consciousness, asking what the evidence (if any) suggests about survival after death. Though cautiously sceptical of any definitive proof, he argues that many phenomena challenge materialist assumptions about mind and mortality. Featuring discussion of case‑studies, sceptical responses, and philosophical implications, the book invites readers to rethink life, death and what might lie beyond.  A very good copy in dust jacket.
