Publisher's Summary
The #1 New York Times bestselling account of a neurosurgeon's own near-death experience—for fans of 7 Lessons from Heaven.
Thousands of people have had near-death experiences, but scientists have argued that they are impossible. Dr. Eben Alexander was one of those scientists. A highly trained neurosurgeon, Alexander knew that NDEs feel real, but are simply fantasies produced by brains under extreme stress.
Then, Dr. Alexander’s own brain was attacked by a rare illness. The part of the brain that controls thought and emotion—and in essence makes us human—shut down completely. For seven days he lay in a coma. Then, as his doctors considered stopping treatment, Alexander’s eyes popped open. He had come back.
Alexander’s recovery is a medical miracle. But the real miracle of his story lies elsewhere. While his body lay in coma, Alexander journeyed beyond this world and encountered an angelic being who guided him into the deepest realms of super-physical existence. There he met, and spoke with, the Divine source of the universe itself.
Alexander’s story is not a fantasy. Before he underwent his journey, he could not reconcile his knowledge of neuroscience with any belief in heaven, God, or the soul. Today Alexander is a doctor who believes that true health can be achieved only when we realize that God and the soul are real and that death is not the end of personal existence but only a transition.
This story would be remarkable no matter who it happened to. That it happened to Dr. Alexander makes it revolutionary. No scientist or person of faith will be able to ignore it. Listening to it will change your life.

In the groundbreaking Crossover Experience, our trio of researchers focuses on the fine details found within NDEs that are often overshadowed by the more well-known main events. And it is here they found a treasure trove of clues that reveal more depth, contour, and messaging within a Near-Death Experience. What they also found, to their surprise—it is often in what we don’t see in an NDE that we gain the greatest insight.

Absolutely validated what I know to be true
I’ve spent a lot of time processing experiences I’ve had, thinking about how they fit into the common understanding of cosmology and comparing them to wisdom and stories from ancient religions, philosophy, and the like.
It sounds like should I read Eben Alexander’s next book “Map of Heaven” I might find myself even further vindicated.

Great that it comes from a doctor
I dont agree with everything he says but overall it was good. He does not understand the nature of rebirth and Kamma based on what he says about it. All things are impermanent, nothing is forever including heaven.

Insightful but with distractions
This book is very insightful and convincing and I'm grateful for the author's perspective.
Unfortunately, the author's references to Christian religion were irritating to me, to the point of being distracting. I wonder if the text would be more accessible to readers without those references, especially for readers like myself who are allergic to traditional religion, whose evils did so much pernicious harm to humanity. The surgeon is merely sharing his own beliefs, of course, but he did want to be heard by all.
