The Light Beyond
Raymond A. Moody, Jr.. Bantam Books, $15.95 (0pp) ISBN 978-0-553-05285-5
Moody is a psychiatrist whose landmark book Life After Life , stimulated research into the near-death experience (NDE). He has spent 20 years studying the phenomenon, and, in this follow-up study, he presents descriptions of NDE from an impressive number of people who have experienced it. The accounts of supposedly dying and being revived related by adults and children are strikingly similar as are cases here reported by other researchers. Noting that no scientific proof of an afterlife exists, Moody should nonetheless persuade open-minded readers to believe in the possibility and to lobby for further exploration into a new dimension of natural laws.
