Another fascinating book on NDEs
27 May 2000
Format:Mass Market Paperback
I really enjoyed this book and acutally find the entire subject of NDEs quite fascinating. This book is, to me, a more "scientific" type of explanation, written by an MD, but nonetheless, quite fascinating and very interesting. Recommended reading if you are interested in finding out more about NDEs.
Again, reports of people who have had NDEs, the message is the same - kindness and love as taught by Jesus. People's lives are forever changed after having an NDE.
Moody goes into more explanations and actually posts the questioins and answers, that I, as a reader, was asking as well!
I especially liked the subject on suicide, in which Dr. Moody interviewed subjects who had attempted suicide, had a NDE and came back to "live". All said that is was wrong and they would never do it again. We are God's gift, doing His duty here on earth. Suicide opposses God. Pretty hefty message in this chapter.
Because of his research, readers and others might be looking for Dr. Moody to "prove" that there is life after death. He quite clearly explains that that is not his intent, yet offers his own views on the subject. You, the reader, can judge for yourselves and claim your own beliefs. Yet, after reading numerous books on the subject, (I am currently reading 2 more of Dr. Moody's books),it is very hard to doubt the existence. I leave you with this quote from Dr. Moody's book, "I believe it lies within the realm of possibility that, in a similiar fashion, almost everyone may eventually come to accept intellectually, even without definite proof, that there is another dimension of existence into which the soul passes at death. Remember that it is our own anxiety about whether death is final which shows through when we challenge a person who has had such an experience to "prove" that there is life after death."

I love this book.
9 Sep 2009
Format:Mass Market Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
This is a great book. It is an excellent follow up to Life after Life. After reading Life after Life I knew I had to read all of Raymond Moody's books. Once you read Life after Life you too will be hooked. If you read Life after Life and can relate than you won't be able to stop at reading just one of his books.

Buy the complete work instead of this
20 Feb 2008
Format:Mass Market Paperback
You shouldn't buy this book, instead you should buy Life After Life & Reflections On Life After Life (A Guidepost 2 in 1 Selection). It contains this work and Moody's first book on NDE's.
As for the book itself, it covered the subject matter well. I enjoyed the accounts of different Near Death Experiences, but Moody spent only half the book relating them. I didn't enjoy the sections on how parts of historical or religious literature could be based on NDEs. I didn't enjoy him speculating (the 'reflections' part I guess) since he writes with a very fundamentalist mindset.
Overall, an OK book that satisfied my curiosity.
