In Life After Life Raymond Moody investigates more than one hundred case studies of people who experienced "clinical death" and were subsequently revived. First published in 1975, this classic exploration of life after death started a revolution in popular attitudes about the afterlife and established Dr. Moody as the world's leading authority in the field of near-death experiences. Life after Life forever changed the way we understand both death -- and life -- selling millions of copies to a world hungry for a greater understanding of this mysterious phenomenon.
The extraordinary stories presented here provide evidence that there is life after physical death, as Moody recounts the testimonies of those who have been to the "other side" and back -- all bearing striking similarities of an overwelming positive nature. These moving and inspiring accounts give us a glimpse of the peace and unconditional love that await us all.
InsightfulAugust 14, 2008 I have read many books on near death experiences and the accounts in this book ring true. I have lost loved ones and I know there is life after death, because I have received after death communications. I would recommend this book to the bereaved and to those facing the impending death of a loved one.
Nothing Near About A Near Death ExperienceMay 27, 2008 5 out of 5 found this review helpful
I read quite a few books about NDEs before I bought this one. No doubt it was very controversial when it was originally published. Dr. Moody does a very good job of compiling and comparing data from interviews with the people who had these experiences to capture the "essence" of dying and how it changed their perspective on life. This is definitely what he does best. The part to support NDEs through sources like the Tibetan Book of the Dead and the writings of Emanuel Swedenborg was lacking. But in his defense, it had to be put in there or the book would have been classifed under fiction.
We Don't Die!May 23, 2008 Raymond Moody's book is a must read for anyone interested in the scientific proof that goes along with this type of investigative study. Written from the perspective of a once-sceptic, he quickly moves through the stages of doubt to belief when the details of patient after patient reveal earily similar cannot be denied details of what happens after we pass and that is - simply that we don't die!

Good contentMarch 3, 2008 Gives accounts from persons that have had a near death experience and also discusses the notion of life after death. Helpful if you have recently lost someone or just interested in the topic. I would recommend to others.

I didn't buy this book, I got it free with a mark on the front from a used book store. It was well worn, but I wanted to read it. I did a few years ago and it remains in my collection. It was very interesting. I highly recommend it to anyone who is interested in feeling as though they have evidence of the after life. In fact, I'm going to buy a new copy for myself and leave my copy on the same shelf where I once got it from! I'm sure someone else will enjoy it as much as I have!!!
