Evidence of the Afterlife
The Science of Near-Death Experiences
By Jeffrey Long, Paul Perry | Publisher: HarperCollins
About the book
“There is currently more scientific evidence to the reality of near death experience (NDE) than there is for how to effectively treat certain forms of cancer,” states radiation oncologist Dr. Jeffrey Long is his groundbreaking new book Evidence of the Afterlife. In 1998 Dr. Long and his wife, Jody, began the Near Death Experience Research Foundation with the goal of creating a forum for near death “experiencers” to share their stories. Grounded in first-hand evidence culled from over 1,600 verified NDE accounts, Evidence of the Afterlife presents the strongest argument yet for the reality of life after death and the underlying truth of those who have died and returned to share their tales.
Dr. Long presents nine lines of evidence that converge on a single, astonishing conclusion:
- Out-of-Body Experience: An analysis of hundreds of verified accounts where patients accurately reported events that occurred while they were unconscious or even clinically dead.
- Survival of Consciousness: A look at cases of lucid, organized experiences that occurred under general anesthesia, when the brain should be incapable of forming memories.
- Visions of the Blind: The medically inexplicable phenomenon of people blind from birth reporting detailed visual perception for the first time during an NDE.
- Worldwide Consistency: The remarkable consistency of core NDE elements across cultures, languages, and religions, suggesting a universal human experience.
