At first, I thought this book was going to be similar to Jeffrey Long's EVIDENCE OF THE AFTERLIFE: THE SCIENCE OF NEAR-DEATH EXPERIENCES. About 90 pages into the text, however, I was shocked by the author's statements that people (particularly cardiac patients) are coming back to life regularly, and in significant numbers. The physicians interviewed indicated that there is 'a window of opportunity' to bring back a person (to life) of approximately 4 hours.
I think this is a very reassuring book for anyone who has lost someone and is grieving. Other books (physician-written), tend to talk about numbers and general commonalities. This book gives direct quotes from people who have actually died and come back to life. Much of what they have to say is very reassuring.
The upshot of the book seems to be that there is a growing dialogue in the world about near-death experiences. Early on, the people who talked about their experiences were considered mistaken or maybe crazy. Because of the growing number of these experiences, there is more discussion about spending money to investigate these occurrences further.
