Near Death Experiences

The Science, Psychology and Anthropology Behind the Phenomenon

De: Anthony Peake

Narrado por: Anthony Peake

As the bestselling author of Is There Life After Death? and Cheating the Ferryman, Anthony Peake has studied the phenomena surrounding what happens when we die. In Near-Death Experiences, he takes a look at a phenomenon that has garnered great attention from both academics and scientists who study the workings of the brain and the physiological events that are associated with this seemingly inexplicable state.

By marrying up anecdotal evidence with empirical scientific evidence, Peake proffers the latest theories behind what we call 'near-death experiences' and how those investigating them are trying to reconcile an apparent state of awareness on the part of the person concerned with the fact that clinically they are considered by physicians to be in a state of clinical death with no signs of bodily functions.

It makes for a fascinating read that takes us into an area of neuroscientific research that is continually evolving.

Another thought-provoking book from Mr. Peake

I've read or listened to all of Anthony Peake's books and I wouldn't miss anything he writes and it's a treat he always reads his own books. But if you're new to Anthony's work, I think this book is a great place to start.

In my opinion, this book was absolutely excellent, perhaps one of his best. A brilliant blend of the esoteric and the scientific. I don't think the theory he proposes at the end is revolutionary - in fact I'm 99% sure it's been discussed for over a decade, but this book I think IS revolutionary in the fact that he lays out the argument so deliberately, eloquently and so thoroughly (complete with footnotes).

As a bonus you will also have the experience of listening to what might be one of longest, most self-indulgent rambling forwards to a book ever composed in the English language. After listening to it twice (Venmo me if you'd like), I'm still not sure what the point is. Maybe someone can tell me?

Congrats Anthony and keep them coming!
