Life at Death: A Scientific Investigation of the Near-Death Experience

This is the first scientific study of the Near Death Experience. It is like a breath of fresh air after the anecdotal accounts of men like Raymond Moody. There is a statistical analysis of the aspects of the NDE, and some of the conclusions are rather surprising, but the small sample size is rather upsetting. With the prevalence of NDE's around, it seem rather silly to only use 100 people in the sample. At any rate, let's hope that this book will be encourage other researchers to look at the Near Death Experience a little more citically.
