Everyone loves a good ghost story. Ghosts Among Us is that and more—an incredible journey into the spirit world that sheds light on the greatest mysteries of life and death. James Van Praagh shares his knowledge and life experience about ghosts, taking a world that to many of us seems both crazy and scary and making it accessible, leading not only to understanding but even inspiration. Filled with extraordinary true ghost stories and surprising details about how ghosts actively participate in our lives, Van Praagh challenges us to question our perceptions and shows how we can live more fully by being open to the spirit world.

"A quick and enjoyable read (if you are interested in this sort of thing, of course). It's not so much whether I believe everything he has to say about the after-life -- it's more that I like to see a view of life from a perspective that is so unique. I don't doubt Van Praagh's abilities (my own life experience makes this possible for me). Also, personally, I believe life continues. It does make me think -- just as each of us percieve this life in our own particular way, so each of us will see the after-life from our own perspectives."

    " Have never read any of his books before, but was a fan of the show Ghost Whisperer. I am one that is not completely skeptical, but was not raised to believe that people can see/speak to the dead. Over the years, the subject has fascinated me but have never attended a reading. I find many of the aspects of the book interesting, but am definitely a "see it to believe it" type person. "
