'Absorbing and convincing' - Daily Mail
'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, author of Life After Life
After is a ground-breaking book for anyone curious about the scope of the human mind, the nature of consciousness, and the pursuit of a meaningful life.
Dr Greyson is:'a dominant force at the frontier of this intriguing field'. - The Times
What happens when we die?
Ten per cent of people whose hearts stop, and then restart, report near-death experiences. Stories of lights, tunnels and reunion with late loved ones have been relayed - and dismissed - since ancient times. But when Dr Bruce Greyson's patients started describing events that he simply could not dismiss, he began to investigate.
In After, he shares the scientific revelations of four decades of research into the dying process. He has become increasingly convinced that dying is less an ending than a transition, the threshold between one form of consciousness and another. Dr Greyson challenges us to consider what these lessons 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 book will define near-death research. It will change the way we live our lives.' Barbara Bradley Hagerty, New York Times bestseller and National Public Radio correspondent
'For anyone interested in life after death, science and spirituality, and life's meaning, this book is a treasure trove of insights and inspiration.' Jeffrey Long, New York Times bestseller
'Bruce Greyson is the most influential medical doctor-investigator over the last 40 years . . . His work has the potential to completely change our fractured and confused world.' Eben Alexander, New York Times bestseller
