Book Description

Oct 19 2007
The Big Book of Near-Death Experiences encompasses every aspect of the near-death phenomenon: the experience, aftereffects, and implications. P.M.H. Atwater?s simple, appealing format includes drawings and cartoons by Spirit Painter and Chuck Vadun and sidebars from experts. She investigates and reports on the power of changed lives, the reality of deceased who come back, visitors at death's edge, out-of-body travel, the expansion of normal faculties, the awesome presence of Deity and the importance of spirituality.
The Big Book of Near-Death Experiences examines near-death studies from the "Moody Miracle" early days, through the myths of "the light at the end of the tunnel" and "the religion of the resuscitated," to 2007. After 32 years of work with clinical prospective studies in several countries, the reality of the near-death experience has been verified, confirming its importance in the study of consciousness.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great Resource on the Subject Jan 19 2008
By Zadius Sky TOP 500 REVIEWER
Format:Paperback
P.M.H. Atwater has written a great resourceful work entitled "The Big Book of Near-Death Experiences," as it is a collection of intriguing accounts of near-death experiences. In this book, there are five parts, 26 chapters, with five appendixes, and roughly 460 pages.

Never having had any Near-Death experience myself, I found this book to be an excellent reading as well an intriguing research on the subject, especially on how the experiences affected one's brain structure/chemistry/function.

It indeed is a big book and well worth a read.

4.0 out of 5 stars The Dummies Guide to NDEs Aug 6 2009
By Ronald W. Maron TOP 500 REVIEWER
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
In spite of the fact that the author has a bit of a tendency to ramble at times and that some of her examples are repeated in preceding chapters, I think that this book is an excellent source for all questions surrounding NDEs. Having experienced three near death experiences herself, the author then set out to devote thirty years of professional life to working on this topic. She covers it all! From simple definitions to the debunkers to the view of where this phenomenon may lead society as a whole, everything is covered in 400+ pages. For further readings and studies her ample bibliography will send you in any direction you may choose.

I strongly recommend this for converts and naysayers alike. When you have finished reading this book if you still have a question, you must have skipped a chapter by accident.

5.0 out of 5 stars My Doubts Have Been Settled Nov 3 2007
By Christa - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
I was completely chilled, but in such an amazing way by the time I finished reading this book. I have never read a more persuasive and convincing arguement for the theory that life truly does not end once our time on this earth wraps up. I've always been a big believer in God as the end all and be all of my existence. I still have that faith, but this book also broadened my mind to "spirituality" and less towards organized religion as the foundation for my faith. I also gained an understanding of the human mind and body that I never in 35 years actually sat and contemplated. I more or less just drifted through life simply "existing". There are a lot of books out there who seem to be made for daytime talk shows with their leaning toward the dramatic. They err toward cartoonish instead of convincing. THIS however is imo THE only book that you need to truly convince yourself that you have absolutely nothing to fear. I was left with no doubts and a complete and utter acceptance of LAD. I hope others get as much out of this book as I did.

3.0 out of 5 stars Not what I expected... Nov 7 2007
By Mark Dodds - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
What I expected was a large book filled with lots and lots of near-death experiences. What I got was some experiences (many seem abbreviated) along with analysis and the creation of all sorts of categories. While that is valuable for scientific research - I feel the title is somewhat misleading.

1.0 out of 5 stars Not what I expected Jan 5 2008
By Janet Paccione - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
I also found this book was not what I expected. The author claims to have interviewed the near-death experiences of 3,000 adults and 277 children and yet there are very few stories of actual near-death experiences.
