Erasing Death: The Science That Is Rewriting the Boundaries Between
Life and Death reveals that death is not a moment in time. Death,
rather, is a process--a process that can be interrupted well after it
has begun. Innovative techniques have proven to be effective in
revitalizing both the body and mind, but they are only employed in
approximately half of the hospitals throughout the United States and
Europe.
Dr. Sam Parnia, Director of the AWARE Study (AWAreness during
REsuscitation) and one of the world's leading experts on the scientific
study of death and near-death experiences (NDE), presents cutting-edge
research from the front lines of critical care and resuscitation
medicine while also shedding light on the ultimate mystery: What happens
to human consciousness during and after death? Dr. Parnia reveals how
some form of "afterlife" may be uniquely ours, as evidenced by the
continuation of the human mind and psyche after the brain stops
functioning.
With physicians such as Dr. Parnia at the forefront, we are on the verge
of discovering a new universal science of consciousness that reveals the
nature of mind and a future where death is not the final defeat, but is,
in fact, reversible.
