Summary: Accurate information
Review: "Life After Life" is an extremely informative book which I've found matches nicely to my own personal view of the near death experience. I am grateful Dr. Moody shares this information.While I personally prefer reading near death experience accounts written by actual experiencers (like myself) I can appreciate viewpoints coming from the researchers in the field. Love, David Oakford, Near Death Experiencer

Summary: GREAT COMFORT FOR THOSE WHO HAVE HAD AN N.D.E.
Review: A close relative of mine dearly died in a traffic crash and had an NDE. Reading this book gave her much needed comfort and understanding about her experience. I know that most people (like me) who have never had an NDE, are curious about them. And this book satisfies that curiosity, at least partially. But for those who have experienced them, a book like this provides much-needed comfort and understanding. This is partially due to the fact that it is difficult to talk about your own NDE with someone who doesn't understand them, or may even be skeptical. Nobody wants to be ridiculed, especially over an experience that you may consider to be sacred and very personal. --George Stancliffe

Summary: Amazing
Review: After losing my father, I experienced an NDE myself. This book not only helped me through my grief, it also helped me understand what had happened when I experienced my NDE. I would recommend this book to anyone experiencing the loss of a loved one. It helps to see that there is a world beyond, no matter what religion you are.

Summary: Helps You to Believe
Review: After reading many books by several empowering authors such as Betty Eadie, John Edward, Sylvia Browne, and Tiffany Snow, that I am still reading, my life has opened up to me in such a compelling and wonderful way. This new book is well written, and thought provoking. There are great transforming authors, who shift the consciousness of humankind in a way never known before, and have the courage to reveal their paranormal experiences. The "The Investigation" is one of these.

Summary: This book started me on my journey to discover within myself
Review: After reading this book I could see that we are like a thought process that always exists. We (the thought process that we are) just floats out of the body and exists in another reality or dimension without skipping a beat. Then this understanding led to other discoveries and my journey began.

Summary: Moody backs off afterlife claim!
Review: Although this book is a classic, Raymond Moody later wrote another book called "The Last Laugh" which he wishes was an addendum to "Life After Life." In "Last Laugh" he has backed off the claim that NDE's are evidence of an afterlife. However, if one is interested in an indepth assessment of the afterlife evidence, then I highly recommend Stephen Braude's "Immortal Remains" which also gives very good reasons why NDE's are poor evidence for the "survivalist" hypothesis. If you examine much of the survival evidence, it's not clear what to say. It's not clear to what extent it can be explained away in terms of normal or abnormal processes, or even in terms of paranormal processes among the living. Some of the so-called evidence scarcely makes sense even if one accepts the idea of postmortem survival. These are matters that Braude's book examines at length, and he still comes to the assessment that the best cases for mediumship, reincarnation, possession, and hauntings do better support the view that some aspects of our personality and personal consciousness survives the death of our bodies, at least for a time.

Summary: I used to love this book!
Review: And I still have sentimental feelings for it. When someone I know has passed on, I hope that the things I've read in "Life After Life" really do provide a "preview." But if you read Connie Willis' "Passage," a novel about scientists who study NDEs, you will wonder. You will ask just how Moody conducted his research. Did he ask his subjects leading questions? Did he encourage them down certain paths? Nobody wants to believe his vision more than I. But there are things that we non-scientists need to know before evaluating a work like this. This is not to say that Connie's vision is "correct." But her book points out the weaknesses that MAY be inherent in "Life After Life." If a researcher goes in with pre-conceived notions and expectations, he can - if he's skillful and personable - lead his witnesses to the conclusions he has already drawn. Death is a mystery, folks. That's the way it is.

Summary: Extremely convincing
Review: Before reading this book, I didn't believe in life after death. After reading it, I did. I'm not the gullible type. This is a sincere book, not a fraud, and its conclusions are reasonable. While many other books in the New Age section seem questionable to me, this one doesn't.

Summary: From One Of The Authors Of The Book Of Thomas
Review: Before there were people like Deepak Chopra, Micheal Newton, and Brian Weiss there was Raymond Moody. He was the "Original" pioneer in this genre blazing the trail for everyone else to follow this century.
I have owned five copies of "Life After Life," and given them all away to people I felt needed them more than I for bereavement issues. I highly recommend Dr.Moody's books to anyone just starting on their path of self discovery.
