Near-death experiences form the basis of religions, as they speak of life after death. Professor Michels spoke with a variety of people of all ages who turned back from the brink of death and returned to life, some of whom were outright denied access to the afterlife because they were not yet ready. He has documented their experiences. Through his analyses, Professor Michels demonstrates that it is not dreams or wishful thinking that underlie these phenomena, but rather that they possess a depth of knowledge that cannot be explained by rationality. Once again, the author proves: Death is far from the end.
