Announcing Dr. Bruce Greyson’s forthcoming book, available in March of 2021.
After: A Doctor Explores What Near-Death Experiences Reveal About Life and Beyond.
What happens when we die? Approximately 10% of people whose hearts stop report near-death experiences (NDEs). Stories of lights, tunnels and loved ones have been relayed — and dismissed — since ancient times. But when Dr. Bruce Greyson’s patients started describing events that he could not just dismiss, he began to investigate. In After, he shares the transformative lessons he has learned over four decades of research.
In this book, Dr. Greyson challenges us to consider what NDEs can teach us about the relationship between our brain and our mind, expanding our understanding of consciousness, and of what it means to be human.
“This very captivating book by Dr. Bruce Greyson chronicles his personal, spiritual and professional quest to understand the meaning of near-death experiences. His long-awaited and amazing book is a major contribution to the study of what happens when we die, and will quickly prove to be a classic in near-death studies.” ~Raymond Moody, MD, PhD, Author of Life After Life
