The cross-correspondences

Now I have to admit I've given up about halfway into Hamilton's book. The first half is an outline of the source material, and the second is an assessment of what it all meant. It's obviously a well written and very thorough examination of the evidence, but based on the part I read, Donald West's assessment of the material certainly rings true. Hamilton's conclusion is evidently that the scripts contain strong indications of some kind of psychical phenomena, and he hopes that his work will stimulate efforts to make all the material available online and that funding will be forthcoming for a substantial multi-disciplinary team to investigate it. I really wonder whether that would be a productive use of resources.

I seem to remember struggling with Archie Roy's book too. The impression I got was that he considered the CCs to be the ultimate best evidence but I  found it hard to follow the trail and ended up confused as to who was dead or alive, who was using pseudonyms and who was collating the material.
