Jane questioned a lot of the material especially in the early books. She also questioned weather Seth was just a part of her subconscious in the early material.
Some of the actual material in the books was given by Jane in front of a group of people some of whom can be contacted like Sue Watkins and Rick Stack. They have written books of their own based on their experiences with Seth's teachings. The Johathan Livingston Seagull guy also attended many Seth readings and will attest that the unusually dense material was given verbatim by Jane.
A lot of concepts that seemed to be unheard of before have come from Seth and any concept found in any modern New Thought book can be originally found in Seths work. Some of the concepts have recently been accepted and proven by modern physics such as changing he past, alternative energies that eminate from consciousness and the likelihood of probable realities.
There are a lot of other subtle clues in the writings that make it stand apart from all other metaphysical writings including the ancient philopophies and the LOA work from the early 1900s.
Jane wasn't much of a marketing machine, did not earn much money and focused much of her energy on channeling the information and holding weekly classes where Seth could speak with others.
I search around at times, to search the other side - the skeptical side of Seth but besides the obvious - people who simply wouldn't accept channeled information - there isn't much.
Ultimately you have to decide if the material is right for you to believe to be true.
