His thoughts on spirit guides and aspects of consciousness are very interesting. He explains about setting up circles, considerations for doing so and linking up with spirit guides and how they work with us. He continues with information about platform work and the conditions some may place on a medium of using codes to prove our loved one still exists. His approach to sceptics and proving himself is rather amusing!
