Here is a brief selection of resources that spotlight the emergence of a robust post-materialist trend in science. This includes afterlife communication and mediumship, reincarnation and life-between lives research, as well as new perspectives on the nature of consciousness and a critical view of organized skepticism.

Skeptical About Skeptics    "A genuine skeptic is one who inquires with an open mind, using critical thinking to evaluate all available evidence. Unfortunately, some who laud themselves as skeptics are in fact pseudoskeptics. Skeptical About Skeptics shines a light on these actors with articles by top scientists and thinkers, revealing the skeptics’ faulty critiques and underhanded methods. We highlight controversies in specific fields of research and examine prominent pseudoskeptics and skeptical organizations."
