Product Description

'...before she could take another step, a hand from behind grabbed the shoulder of her coat and lifted her back onto the pavement. That same instant, a car which was travelling very fast and that she had neither seen nor heard, swept over the exact spot she had reached.' This is just one of the amazing stories that is featured in this book.

The Daily Mail
An extraordinary, intelligent book

From the Publisher
Emma's university doctoral research was the first academic study into contemporary angelic experiences and assessed such experiences and attitudes in the U.K. A BBC Everyman documentary was made around her work and she has since featured heavily in the media talking about the angel findings and about her subsequent books - After Death Communication and They Walk Among Us, both also exploring others spiritual and numinous experiences.

From the Author
During the last few years increasing numbers of people have been and are claiming to have had angel encounters, thus leading to what many social observers are terming the "Angel Phenomena". According to Time magazine, 69% of American people believe in angels and a staggering 46% feel they have a guardian angel. One might ask why this is, some attributed it to millennium fever, others to the fact that a large percentage of Generation X has grown up with no religious faith and that such enigmatic experiences are simply the manifestation of people's need for spiritual fulfilment. However, the 69% consists of Americans who believe this – and I am asking the question: Are British attitudes much the same? I wondered if a study in the UK would yield the same sort of results so I put article’s and adverts in the local press and religious newsletters asking for people to write with their experiences. This soon caught the imagination of the national media and I was fortunate to get articles in many papers, magazines, radio and TV programmes. As a result, data was collected through a self-selectory response to this and with over 1000 written testimonies from UK residents who believe they have had some kind of angelic encounter I have analysed the results and the vast selection of experiences related.

It soon became aware that people from all cultures, backgrounds and faiths were relating the same types of experience, so it has a multi-faith and cross cultural element.There is also a chapter exploring the experiences in the blind and partially sighted, along with a chapter on altered states of consciousness (namely twilight experiences) and the "sensed presence".
