Publisher's Synopsis
Both informative and scientific, a forensic neuropsychiatrist guides the reader toward an understanding of the Near Death Experience (NDE). Aided by numerous testimonies from people all over the world who lived through the "tunnel effect," the author explains the sequence of events that precede death. It is a journey that begins with the sights and sounds of imminent death: light, astral travel and encounters with deceased relatives and "beings," but which ends with a return to life. Neurology, the brain and spirit are fully compatible and open up new avenues for understanding these spiritual experiences. Although the author discusses the techniques used to understand the NDE from a scientific point of view, they are explained in a way that is easy to understand.
The poet Antonio Machado once said: "Start to doubt and you'll end up doubting your own doubt; in this way God rewards both the skeptic and the believer."It is the last frontier. Dr. Raymond Moody said about this book: "I am happy to support this wonderful new book about near-death experiences. Researchers all over the world begin to discover that deep spiritual experiences of the dying are difficult to explain, so works like those of Dr. Gaona will change very quickly the way people around the world understand death and life beyond it.
I invite you to an exciting journey, by the hand of Dr. Gaona, to the other side of the tunnel." -------------------------------------------------- Dr. J. M.
