Do such cases support the belief that the human personality survives the death of the body? And how can such experiences be tested scientifically? Using classic accounts and the latest laboratory research, D. Scott Rogo, consultant editor of FATE magazine, provides a balanced and informed survey of the whole life after death issue, from the early work carried out by the Society for Psychical Research to the documentation of near-death experiences by Raymond Moody and others.
LIFE AFTER DEATH also looks at out- of-the-body experiences, the evidence for reincarnation, 'spirit' voices, crisis apparitions, and those remarkable cases - such as that of the British 'composer' Rosemary Brown - in which the dead appear to work creatively through the living. The author's conclusion, based on his extensive knowledge of the literature, is that the case for the survival of death is impressive, though not-as yet - proven beyond doubt. His book offers an unbiassed assessment of the subject for anyone who has ever wondered what death has in store for us - and who has not?
