"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 and will quickly prove to be a classic in near-death studies." -- Raymond Moody, M.D., Ph.D., Author of Life After Life "Bruce Greyson is the most influential medical doctor investigator over the last 40 years of this world-changing analysis. His work has the potential to completely change our fractured and confused world, offering insights that may lead to an explanation of the nature of consciousness. It will also help to nudge the entire scientific community towards realizations that can alter human history--bringing far more peace, harmony, and comfort to uncountable millions of souls both now and in future generations." -- Eben Alexander, M.D., New York Times Bestselling Author of Proof of Heaven "In this very important book, Dr. Bruce Greyson helps elucidate the near-death experience with a scientific sensibility that makes what was exquisitely personal more accessible to a general audience. He bridges the gap between science and spirituality with elegance, and offers those who have not had such a transformative experience a glimpse of the changes possible in their own lives from reading his book. I believe all who read this book will be led to positive and permanent insights that will have profound and lasting effects in their own lives." -- Anita Moorjani , New York Times bestselling author of Dying to Be Me: My Journey From Cancer to Near Death, to True Healing "As a practicing surgeon and near-death experiencer, I appreciate Dr. Bruce Greyson's dual position as a scientist and psychiatrist, and have an even deeper appreciation for Dr. Bruce Greyson's more than forty years of dispassionate and methodical research into the experience of dying and his commitment to rigorous investigation of this threshold between life and death. This book addresses the nature and meaning of life through Dr. Greyson's interweaving of personal stories and scientific evidence and in doing so, provides hope to the dying and comfort to those left behind." -- Mary Neal, M.D. , Former Director of Spinal Surgery, University of Southern California, New York Times bestselling author of To Heaven and Back: A Doctor's Extraordinary Account of Her Death "Bruce Greyson is the towering figure in the research on death, the brain, and consciousness. Now, after four decades of meticulous study, he urges us to consider the deepest mystery of life: Whether we live and die as solely material beings, or experience death as a transition to an unseen reality. With compelling case studies and careful investigation, this book represents the best of scientific exploration. It is guided by a scientist with impeccable credentials and who has the humility and courage to follow the evidence to some surprising - and hopeful -- conclusions. This book will define near-death research. It will change the way we live our lives." -- Barbara Bradley Hagerty, M.L.S. , Religion Correspondent, National Public Radio, author of Fingerprints of God: The Search for the Science of Spirituality, "Captivating...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, M.D., Ph.D. , bestselling author of Life After Life "Dr. Greyson's work has the potential to completely change our fractured and confused world, offering insights that may lead to an explanation of the nature of consciousness." -- Eben Alexander, M.D. , bestselling author of Proof of Heaven "Dr. Greyson brings to near-death experiences what the Kinsey report established for human sexuality." -- Lisa Miller, Ph.D. , professor of Psychology and Education, Columbia University, author of The Spiritual Child "A medical detective story that will grab your heart...We all owe Dr. Greyson thunderous applause." -- P.

Synopsis
Over 100,000 sold! The world's leading expert on near-death experiences reveals his journey toward rethinking the nature of death, life, and the continuity of consciousness. Cases of remarkable experiences on the threshold of death have been reported since ancient times, and are described today by 10% of people whose hearts stop. The medical world has generally ignored these "near-death experiences," dismissing them as "tricks of the brain" or wishful thinking. But after his patients started describing events that he could not just sweep under the rug, Dr. Bruce Greyson began to investigate. As a physician without a religious belief system, he approached near-death experiences from a scientific perspective. In After, he shares the transformative lessons he has learned over four decades of research. Our culture has tended to view dying as the end of our consciousness, the end of our existence--a dreaded prospect that for many people evokes fear and anxiety. But Dr. Greyson shows how scientific revelations about the dying process can support an alternative theory. Dying could be the threshold between one form of consciousness and another, not an ending but a transition. This new perspective on the nature of death can transform the fear of dying that pervades our culture into a healthy view of it as one more milestone in the course of our lives. After challenges us to open our minds to these experiences and to what they can teach us, and in so doing, expand our understanding of consciousness and of what it means to be human.
