Default In honor of Donna, here is a book recommendation.
I hope Donna gets better from her fight with lung cancer.

In her honor, I remember her interest in ghosts and read an extremely interesting book about ghosts and giants in US science.

This book was about William James and his various colleagues and their investigations into proving that the afterlife exists.

The book is called Ghost Hunters: William James and the Search for Scientific Proof of Life After Death. It is by Deborah Blum. Ms. Blum is a very good writer and makes a difficult subject easier to understand.

It is a little heavy reading though.
