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.

This book is unique . It doesn’t mess about. I really enjoyed listening to his voice too. I was sorry when it ended.

Good scientific explanations.

fantastic as always with Mr Peake. I prefer his own theory of life after death but this shows how versatile Anthony Peake is that he can be objective when his theory is the best

I am finding that the author reports on a few NDE'S but heavily relies upon many others takes on NDE's. Dr Raymond Moody, who the author does refer to occasionally, has done extensive research over decades, on those from all over the world and of various religions as well as those of no faith. Moody findings reported that all had very similar NDE's and were not pertaining to their faiths. The majority of experiencers told a similar story.

To be fair, I have only started listening to this book, but thought it a point worth making (before I forget😉).

Lack of depth
