ASSOCIATION FOR EVALUATION AND COMMUNICATION OF EVIDENCE FOR SURVIVAL
ÆCES (rhymes with "basis") is a non-profit organization dedicated to discerning and disseminating the most convincing evidence for the Survival of the human personality after the demise of the physical body.

"History shows that every intelligent man who has gone into this investigation, if he gave it adequate examination at all, has come out believing in spirits; this circumstance places the burden of proof on the shoulders of the skeptic."
– James H. Hyslop, Ph.D. professor of logic and ethics at Columbia University

A new Survival Top 40 case titled Keeping Them In the Family has been posted (#77). This case concerns two sisters murdered on the streets of England who are reborn as twins to the same family. Thoroughly investigated by Ian Stevenson, Ph.D., and others, the case is an excellent counter to those who posit genetic memory or fetal telepathy as an alternative to reincarnation..

A Cross-Examination of Stephen Hawking, by Victor Zammit, LL.D., Ph.D., has been added to the AECES Document Library. The renowned cosmologist is taken to fictional court and forced to face the ramifications of making ignorant speculations and denials concerning the afterlife.

The biography of Archie Roy has been added to the Legacy Files. Roy was professor emeritus of astronomy and honorary research fellow in the University of Glasgow. He served as president of the Society for Psychical Research (SPR) (1993-95) and was founder of the Scottish Society for Psychical Research.

The Survival Top 40 list has been reorganized. The cases are now listed in order by date, not by ESS score. This move is intended to minimize discussion as to whether one case should be ranked as more convincing than some other case. The scoring system is still used to determine qualification for the list; but, any case that scores sufficiently high to qualify for inclusion in the top 40 list should be considered worthy of being labeled as one of the "most convincing." The numerical score earned will still be printed at the top of each case description .
