Review Summary: An amazing account of death and dying
Review: An amazing book for those of us who have lost loved ones, and for those of us who wonder what death my be like. This is a great follow up to her book, On Grief and Grieving: Finding the Meaning of Grief Through the Five Stages of Loss. While a shorter book, it is more pointed in the message that the death of ourselves and our loved ones is merely a transition into another form of existance. Like her book on Grief and Grieving, I find myself in tears as I read this book with the lovely stories told in these pages.
This book is not written from any specific religion slant, it is written from a more basic human side. She has collected many years worth of personal experience in spending time with those who are dying, and has walked away many points that would help anyone dealing with loved ones who have died, or may be dying. I would encourage anyone to read this book that has open questions about what is it like to die, is death painful, do you die alone, are there near death experiences, and so much more. It is a must read.

Review Summary: Short and Unique
Review: This is a slightly different book on NDE's from some of the others. It's short and has a softer tone in my opinion. And it's from a doctor's perspective. I really enjoyed it. The author had her own experiences and spent many years working with the dying. So she is less a researcher and more of an experiencer, not that either way is better or worse, but they give different perspectives. Don't miss Lessons from the Light by Kenneth Ring. That's my favorite overall, along with this one.

Review Summary: Life after Death
Review: On Life After Death
This book was very helpful for me to anticipate and go through the death of my mother. I had read it long ago when my first husband died and had often thought about it since. It was good to have it more clearly in mind to answer skeptics who claimed that what was viewed as the spirit leaves the body was just from a lack of oxygen to the brain, therefore hallucinations. Several interviews in the book absolutely squash that idea.

Review Summary: Deeply comforting, a short read but extremely powerful to all of those who have lost a loved one.
Review: This tiny book (only 82 pages) offers the kind of hope all those who have been devastated by the loss of a loved one so often seek and seldom find. It should, of course, be read as an adjunct to Kubler-Ross' later book On Grief and Grieving: Finding the Meaning of Grief Through the Five Stages of Loss It is the seventeenth (17th) book about grief and grieving that I have read since my father left this world for the next almost six months ago. I have found it to be the most moving. The author, now deceased herself, was a physician who worked for years with dying adults and children, not only believed but was CONVINCED that there IS life after death and there ARE people awaiting us "who died before you, who loved and treasured you a lot". This theme has been repeated in a number of works about grief including Don Piper's 90 Minutes in Heaven: A True Story of Death & Life, Don Piper, himself a Bapist minister who actually reportedly died for 90 minutes and came back to life convinced of the existence of a beautiful afterlife.
A University of Michigan educated Masters level social worker (MSW) for 29 years I STRONGLY recommend this book for all those who grieve and for the mental health and pastoral professionals who work to help them.
The book concludes with the words "Death is but a transition from this life to another existence where there is no more pain and anguish." This is linked with the author's previous reference to "the death of a human body...identical to what happens when the butterfly emerges from a cocoon....Dying is only moving from one house into a more beautiful one....As soon as the cocoon in an irreparable condition--be it from suicide, murder, heart attack or chronic disease, it doesn't matter how it happened--it will release the butterfly, your soul so to speak....when you die...the connection between the cocoon and the butterfly...will be severed. After this, it is not possible to return to the earthly body. But you wouldn't want to return to it anyway, for after seeing the light nobody wants to go back...Here there is understanding without judging, and here you experience unconditional love....God is unconditional love."
