In his seminal bookLife After Life, Dr Raymond Moody introduced the near-death experience (NDE) to the world, sharing the true stories of those who have returned from the brink of death.

In this stunning sequel, Dr Moody returns to the area in which he made his name and provides compelling new evidence that NDEs are not the mere biological products of brains in the process of shutting down. Here, he shares the eyewitness accounts of those who have shared the experiences of the dying: the 'empathic death experiences' that occur when those gathered at the bedsides of the dying have their own visions of the afterlife.

Brimming with case studies and drawing upon a lifetime's research as well as recent findings, this important book will change the way we think about life and death. As the baby-boomer generation begins to lose those they love, and international scientific research continues in this area, Dr Raymond Moody's book could not be more timely.

Dr Moody is a respected psychiatrist, lecturer and researcher, and the leading authority on the near-death experience. He has written several books since the phenomenal bestseller,Life After Life, and now runs an institute in Alabama called The Theatre of the Mind, which offers workshops for educators and professional clinicians.

Raymond Moody's seminal work,Life After Life, has completely changed the way we view death and dying. He is widely acknowledge as the world's leading expert in the field of near-death experience.
