Summary

This 450-page book covers every aspect of the near-death phenomenon: the experience, the aftereffects, the implications. It is written in an easy-to-read format drawings, cartoons by Spirit Painter and Chuck Vadun, lots of sidebars, snappy headers with the latest and best in the field. The Sourcebook takes near-death studies from the early days of the Moody Miracle, through the myths of the light at the end of the tunnel and the religion of the resuscitated, to where it is after 32 years of work with clinical prospective studies in several countries verifying the reality of the experience and its many aspects, and establishing its importance in the study of consciousness itself. The power of changed lives, the realness of the deceased come back, visitors at death's edge, out-of-body travel, the expansion of faculties normal to us, the awesome presence of Deity and the importance of spirituality all of this and more are recognized at last as normal to the phenomenon and are no longer automatically associated with hallucinations, oxygen deprivation, the dying brain syndrome, or mental derangement. The biggest, most complete book ever written on the subject.
