Children Who Remember Previous Lives: A Question of Reincarnation by Ian Stevenson, M.D. - Professor Stevenson is one of the most respected individuals in this field, period. He's been researching reincarnation since the early 1960s and has studied it thoroughly and from many angles. He provides a lot of interesting stories in this particular book, but the primary reason I suggest it is because he does such a great job discussing the science behind it. He's very open about its weaknesses, as well, and handles the whole subject with utmost honesty.

Children Who Have Lived Before: Reincarnation Today by Trutz Hardo -- I've just personally started reading this one. I was drawn to it because the author has a connection to Professor Ian Stevenson, someone I respect greatly (see previous book on this list). So far this book reads fairly easy, as it is pretty anecdotal, which I think most readers appreciate. There are plenty of details, such as names and dates, listed for most of the stories, but this information is lacking in some of the stories and I think a lot of people consider that suspect. 

Many Lives, Many Masters by Brian L. Weiss, M.D. - This was the first nonfiction book I ever read about reincarnation. It immediately sucked me in and I finished the whole thing in less than a day. I think that is why this books appeals to so many readers - it's fascinating and easy to read. That said, this book has a lot of critics because it provides a lot less science-backed information than other books on the subject.

Per usual, I will also include Seth books on this list. He covers many subjects and doesn't specifically focus on reincarnation, but he talks openly about it. I like to include his books whenever the topic is brought up. Click here for the full Seth list.

Also, while Abraham Hicks doesn't particularly discuss reincarnation in any great detail, they have stated on more than one occasion that it is a real part of human experience and history. I find it fun to share that tidbit with people who are open to law of attraction but closed to things like reincarnation, ha.
