Publisher's summary

Brought to you by Penguin.

What happens when we die?

Ten percent of people whose hearts stop and then restart report near-death experiences. Stories of lights, tunnels and reunion with late loved ones have been relayed - and dismissed - since ancient times. But when Dr Bruce Greyson's patients started describing events that he simply could not dismiss, he began to investigate.

In After, he shares the scientific revelations of four decades of research into the dying process. He has become increasingly convinced that dying is less an ending than a transition, the threshold between one form of consciousness and another. Dr Greyson challenges us to consider what these lessons can teach us about the relationship between our brain and our mind, expanding our understanding of consciousness and of what it means to be human.

This audiobook includes three bonus interviews with the author.

Critic reviews

Everyone will get something out of this

If I had my way this book would be part of every school curriculum! More relevant and relatable than the bible!
Rather than narratives by individuals who have had an nde this book covers the whole story and how science can understand this phenomenon. Written by a psychiatrist who has studied it in numerous patients over many years, we get a very good picture of where this can lead us. Showing how the age old wisdom of every religion “Do as you would have others do to you” is what truly matters in life. There seems to be a real possibility that mortal death is not the end of our lives. I recommend it and hope you find it as interesting and uplifting as did I.

The narrator reads well but too fast. I set mine to 0.9% speed and that was then perfect.
