''Where Reincarnation and Biology Intersect'' is a 1997 book by psychiatrist Ian Stevenson,〔(Ian Pretyman Stevenson: Psychiatrist who researched reincarnation with scientific rigour ) ''British Medical Journal'' 2007, 334(7595):700 (31 March).〕 published by Praeger. The book is about birthmarks and birth defects ostensibly associated with reincarnation. ''Where Reincarnation and Biology Intersect'' is written for the general reader and is a condensation of a two-part monograph ''Reincarnation and Biology: A Contribution to the Etiology of Birthmarks and Birth Defects'' (Praeger, 1997).〔Edward F. Kelly, Emily Williams Kelly (2007). ''Irreducible Mind: Toward a Psychology for the 21st Century'', p. 650.〕〔B. Alan Wallace (2006). ''Contemplative science: Where Buddhism and Neuroscience Converge'', p. 13.〕 ==Birthmarks and birth defects== Ian Stevenson examined reports of people in different parts of the world who claimed to remember past lives, mostly young children. He explored the idea that "birthmarks and other skin lesions and abnormalities may provide evidence of cutaneous injuries sustained in a previous life, thus supporting the notion of reincarnation".〔Stewart Wolf. Book review: Where Reincarnation and Biology Intersect, ''Integrative Psychological and Behavioral Science'', Vol .35, No. 2, (April 2000), p. 165.〕 ''Where Reincarnation and Biology Intersect'' is "modest in its claims".〔 Stevenson calls some cases investigated "unsolved," where no deceased person has been found to match the birthmarks and memories of the child. Excluding unsolved and questionable cases, about 90 cases remain where there is a "correspondence found between birth marks on the child and similar marks or distinguishing features present on the body of the reincarnated personality during their lifetime, such as wounds, injuries and other stigmata".〔R. Cadoret. (Review of European Cases of the Reincarnation Type ) ''American Journal of Psychiatry'', Vol 162(4) April 2005, p. 824.〕〔William G. Roll. (Where Reincarnation and Biology Intersect - Review ) ''Journal of Parapsychology'', December 1998.〕 Examples include:
... a girl, born with markedly deformed fingers, who seemed to remember being a man whose fingers were cut off, and a boy, born with stubs for fingers on his right hand, who seemed to remember the life of a boy in another village who lost the fingers of his right hand in a fodder-chopping machine.〔Jim B. Tucker. Children's Reports of Past-Life Memories: A Review, ''EXPLORE'', July/August, Vol. 4 No. 4, 2008, p. 245.〕
''Where Reincarnation and Biology Intersect'' contains 35 illustrations, mostly photographs of the birthmarks and birth defects.〔
