Illustrated dustwrapper with gold background and black titles to the front panel and black and white titles to the backstrip. " The book deals with the problem of Death as well as the problem of Life. Aborting the traditional approach to Death which consists of description of the After-Death condition, the author has tried to find a solution for the problems of Survival and Re-incarnation, of Communication with the dead and of the Interval between two lives. He has also dealt with the problem of Separation which Death poses to ordinary men and women. The author would prefer to call the so-called Dead as only the Departed with whom one can establish links of communication, through a wilful journey into the realms of Consciousness." -- from the front fold over panel blurb.
