Publisher Description
THE INSPIRATION FOR THE NETFLIX ORIGINAL SERIES • An impeccably researched, page-turning investigation, revealing stunning and wide-ranging evidence suggesting that consciousness survives death, from New York Times bestselling author Leslie Kean
“An engaging, personal, and transformative journey that challenges the skeptic and informs us all.”—Harold E. Puthoff, Ph.D., director of the Institute for Advanced Studies at Austin
In this groundbreaking book, award-winning journalist and New York Times bestselling author Leslie Kean investigates the unexplained continuity of the human psyche after death. Here, Kean explores the most compelling case studies of young children reporting verifiable details from past lives, contemporary mediums who seem to defy the boundaries of the brain and of the physical world, apparitions providing information about their lives on earth, and people who die and then come back to report journeys into another dimension.
Based on facts and scientific studies, Surviving Death includes fascinating chapters by medical doctors, psychiatrists, and PhDs from four countries. As a seasoned reporter whose work transcends belief systems and ideology, Kean enriches the narrative by including her own unexpected, confounding experiences encountered while she probed the question concerning all of us: Do we survive death?
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Examining evidence of extra-mortal existence with the critical eye of a seasoned reporter, journalist Kean demonstrates that such phenomena merit serious study. The book's four sections cover past-life memories, life beyond death, communicating with beings in the spirit world, and, in a grand denouement, a section titled "Physical Manifestations The Impossible Made Real." Kean writes from a believing perspective while recognizing that her readers will be skeptics. In the many accounts she includes, particularly those of children relating information that can only be explained by memories of a past life, Kean challenges readers to consider the many possibilities of a reality beyond that which can be seen with human eyes. In an additional chapter, cardiologist and near-death researcher Pim van Lommel states, "Today science for me means asking questions with an open mind." Those who come to this book with an open mind will be pleasantly surprised.
