X-WR-CALDESC:The world's leading expert on near-death experiences reveals h
 is journey toward rethinking the nature of death\, life\, and the continui
 ty of consciousness. Cases of remarkable experiences on the threshold of d
 eath have been reported since ancient times\, and are described today by 1
 0% of people whose hearts stop. The medical world has generally ignored th
 ese “near-death experiences\,” dismissing them as “tricks of the brain” or
  wishful thinking. But after his patients started describing events that h
 e could not just sweep under the rug\, Dr. Bruce Greyson began to investig
 ate. 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.\n\nBut Dr. Greyson shows how scientific revelations about the dyi
 ng process can support an alternative theory. Dying could be the threshold
  between one form of consciousness and another\, not an ending but a trans
 ition. 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 m
 ilestone 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\, ex
 pand our understanding of consciousness and of what it means to be human.
