Product Description
Have we lived before? Are our talents and skills attributes we have worked hard to develop in earlier experiences on earth? Are some of our current problems the result of unresolved conflicts from past lives? According to Many Lifetimes, the answers to these questions is YES! Writing in alternating chapters, Joan Grant and Denys Kelsey approach to topic of reincarnation from different angles--Miss Grant as an intuitive who clearly remembers past lives, and husband Denys Kelsey as a psychologist who has explored the secrets of earlier lives through hypnosis.

 A riveting read! July 4, 2008
Moanakai (Roanoke, VA United States)
I could not put this book down, have highlighted and turned down pages and will reread and refer to time and time again, and for me that's a huge statement as I have been in the field of metaphysics for over 60 years. Chapters alternate, one chapter by Joan, the next by her husband who was in the field of Psychiatry and a practicing Hypnotherapist. His medical background along with Joan's natural ability of "far memory" (a skill learned throughout her many lifetimes), combine to offer every imaginable angle to practical matters applicable to everyone's daily living: parenting; relationships/marriage; death and the dying process; birth; intra-uterine life; illness/surgery/anesthesia; ghosts; proper development of the five senses; psychotherapy and reincarnation, and so much more. My personal favorite, which I have not seen addressed by other authors in this way or in such detail, is regarding the "supra-physical" body. Get the book and read all about it, I doubt you'd be disappointed.

Joan Grant's books have been an important inspiration on my quest for personal understanding. `Many Lifetimes' is a distillation of her philosophy of life and death making it a useful over-all picture to her work. The book was written in tandem with her third husband, Dr Denys Kelsey, a practicing psychologist, and he brings a fascinating insight to reincarnation theory and how it can be useful in dealing with current psychosis.I first read this book in the 1970's and at that time was more interested in Joan Grant's chapters. I chose to re-read it for the purpose of reviewing it in Psychic Tymes and found that Dr Denys Kelsey's input had stood the test of time and had in fact improved. The first time around I had skipped a lot of his detail. Joan Grant's chapters are always interesting, inter-lacing her philosophy of existence with paranormal experiences. She is one of those people gifted (or cursed) with psychic ability. The reason I took to her works was due to her `far memory' and the concept of the `long years'. Reincarnation always seemed a basic truth to me, as I could remember being other people at other times. Joan wrote about that as if it were a natural thing rather than a mental aberration. Reading her previous lives biographies (Winged Pharaoh, Eyes of Horus, I as Carola et al) and the explanation of them in her own current life's autobiography `Far memory' was a homecoming. This book distills the wisdom that can be found in her other works into a single volume. The book ends with the touching story of Joan and Denys' friend Ray, who is dying of cancer. It is a wonderful tale as Ray explores the lives that she feels are holding her back on her karmic journey. In expiating them she feels that she can die with grace and dignity, showing her nearest and dearest that death is not to be feared, but is just another beginning. Ray's story is a living example of Joan Grant's philosophy and is an inspiration to us all. Read this book, and then go on to reading Joan's other works. You will learn a lot, as I did.
A very lucid treatment of reincarnation and psychotherapy May 8, 2000

Joan Grant and her husband Denys Kelsey take turns writing their accounts of life in France during and after WWII and how they use her gift of seeing into the far past--past lives--to help psychologically maimed patients. The tone is very humble and yet matter-of-factly and helps us understand our own continuity and moral responsibilities. Suffering is indeed unnecessary and death is nothing to be afraid of.
