Is there life after death? This is a question that has intrigued mankind since the beginning of history. Now Colin Wilson, author of The Outsider and The Psychic Detectives, assesses the evidence for this widely held and much contested belief.

Wilson includes hundreds of...

This volume contains the two last works by HG Wells. Nearing the end of his life, increasingly distressed over the war, Wells deals with death and apocalypse, mortality and religion, and with "human insufficiency."

He points to another approach to the study and exploration of consciousness that erupted into public awareness in the late 1800s. In this "secret history of consciousness," consciousness is seen not as a result of neurons and molecules, but as responsible for them; meaning is not imported...
