Can psychic mediums really talk to the dead? Following the suicide of her mother and an evidential mediumship reading, Dr. Julie Beischel forfeited a potentially lucrative career in the pharmaceutical industry to pursue rigorous scientific research with mediums full-time. Among Mediums is an accessible, bite-sized review of her 10-year journey and the answers she discovered along the way. Her writing is concise, non-technical, conversational, and entertaining. In Among Mediums, Dr. Beischel discusses her research investigating the accuracy and specificity of information reported by mediums; unique aspects of mediums’ experiences, psychology, and physiology; and the potentially useful social applications of mediumship readings in fields including bereavement, end-of-life care, and forensics. All sales support independent research.

Praise for Among Mediums...

“Dr. Julie Beischel is a courageous, innovative pioneer who has brought immense respectability to a controversial area. If you think modern science has proved beyond doubt the finality of physical death, think again. Dr. Beischel’s research with mediums strongly suggests that our destiny is not as morbid as we’ve been led to believe. Her research points like an arrow to an aspect of consciousness that survives. Her contribution is huge, because throughout human history the terror of death’s finality has caused more suffering than all the physical diseases combined. The research in Among Mediums helps annul this fear. This book, then, is about hope, which in our materialistic age has been in short supply.
In the telling, Beischel has established a new genre: science-and-humor. Who said writing about dead people has to be morose and gruesome? Chesterton said, ‘It is a test of a good religion whether you can make a joke about it.’ Perhaps it should be a test of good science, too. If so, Beischel passes the test with high marks. Be prepared to laugh. This, dear reader, is science writing at its best.”
–Larry Dossey, MD
Author of The One Mind

“Easy to read and understand and with a light-hearted touch, Beischel’s book is a wonderful introduction to the application of science to a human experience that is thousands of years old yet which has been ignored or dismissed by most of the scientific community. I highly recommend this book for anyone interested in mediumship, in the mounting evidence for life after death, in the very real potential for mediums in the grieving process, and in how science can be applied to the so-called paranormal.”
–Prof. Loyd Auerbach , MS
Atlantic University & JFK University

“Dr. Beischel has managed to unlock many of the mysteries surrounding mediumship and explain the common misconceptions about the process. Perhaps even more important than the scientific research are her queries about its implications and how the knowledge can be used for the betterment of humanity.”
–Robert Ginsberg
Vice-president, Forever Family Foundation

“This is the finest and clearest piece you will find on this subject matter as it illuminates with humor and expertise the thorniest issues everybody is afraid to ask about survival. Probably no one has done as much detailed scientific research as Dr. Beischel in such an original way. Her results are unquestionably authentic and her unique direction unparalleled. I could not recommend this read and this research more unreservedly. With my many years of work in the arena of grief healing, I can tell you Beischel’s work will transform our understanding of the freedom from fear that is available to all of us.”

“Finally, a book about mediums that explains real science and does not require matching t-shirts or a clever acronym! Smart girls ROCK!!”
