Lucid Death is the first work by Paloma Cabadas and is an international reference for people who seek their own transcendence. As the author reveals, Lucid Death is the natural consequence of having lived with lucidity, the discovery of the meaning of life and death as well as the loss of all one's fears and transforming beliefs into direct knowledge. In her book, Lucid Death, based on the experience of over twenty years of research, Paloma Cabadas explores fascinating topics such as: The interpretation and discovery of our dreams, premonitions and awareness experiences. To lose our fear of the unknown, fear of changes and the fear of losing our identity. To successfully achieve and evolutionarily benefit from out-of-body experiences and subtle consciousness experiences. To use knowledge of oneself as a self-healing method. To explore the knowledge of what life after death is like.

Ready or not, everyone dies. How does one prepare for this inevitable transformational journey? In Lucid Death, author Kienda Betrue presents a guide to the possible afterworlds. From the religions of the world to original hypnotherapy research into the landscapes beyond life, she offers maps to the spiritual places and events that may be encountered after death. Lucid Death places religious beliefs of the afterlife from around the world and throughout time into a context of cosmology and the evolution of consciousness fit for the twenty-first century. Betrue communicates how life and death are seen as both universal and intimately personal, and she shares spiritual regressions that provide living images of life and death, and karma and reincarnation. Including the wisdom traditions of a variety of world religions, Lucid Death offers spiritual truths and tools for accomplishing life and death in noble, enlightened, and empowered ways. Lucid Death is fabulous. The conceptual matrix is vast yet precise. It offers an understandable worldview that nestles human life between the microcosm and the macrocosm in a cozily affirming, yet crisply realistic way. Burnette Carchedi, artist and musician We are fortunate that the author applies her extraordinary inner capacities to explore the mysteries of karma and reincarnation. Rarely do we encounter such an accessible and multicultural rendering of the journey of the soul through the spiritual worlds after death. Ignacio Cisneros, spiritual scientist

A critical care doctor interviews hundreds of patients about their near-death experiences, taking readers on a fascinating tour through human consciousness—and demystifying what may await us after death. Dr. Sam Parnia faces death every day. Through his work as a critical-care doctor in a hospital emergency room, he became very interested in some of his patients’ accounts of the experiences that they had while clinically dead. He started to collect these stories and read all the latest research on the subject—and then he conducted his own experiments. That work has culminated in this extraordinary book, which picks up where Raymond Moody’s Life After Life left off. Written in a scientific, balanced, and engaging style, this is powerful and compelling reading. This fascinating and controversial book will change the way you look at death and dying.

Erasing Death: The Science That Is Rewriting the Boundaries Between Life and Death reveals that death is not a moment in time. Death, rather, is a process—a process that can be interrupted well after it has begun. Innovative techniques have proven to be effective in revitalizing both the body and mind, but they are only employed in approximately half of the hospitals throughout the United States and Europe. Dr. Sam Parnia, Director of the AWARE Study (AWAreness during REsuscitation) and one of the world’s leading experts on the scientific study of death and near-death experiences (NDE), presents cutting-edge research from the front lines of critical care and resuscitation medicine while also shedding light on the ultimate mystery: What happens to human consciousness during and after death? Dr. Parnia reveals how some form of “afterlife” may be uniquely ours, as evidenced by the continuation of the human mind and psyche after the brain stops functioning. With physicians such as Dr. Parnia at the forefront, we are on the verge of discovering a new universal science of consciousness that reveals the nature of mind and a future where death is not the final defeat, but is, in fact, reversible.

Does bodily death mean the complete destruction of a person? The first part of this scholarly book defends the view that the nature of man and the world he encounters implies survival of death as a conceptual possibility. The second part considers the empirical evidence for concluding that at least some persons have survived death. A new kind of understanding, among readers, might result from following the concepts logically developed in this work, using real life terminology and experience.

Due to advances in resuscitation and defibrillation practices over the past decades, people are returning from the brink of death in numbers unprecedented in human history. Of the millions of people who survive drowning each year, about 20% report a near-death experience (NDE): a reported memory of profound psychological events that contain certain paranormal, transcendental, and mystical features. NDEs are usually hyperreal and lucid experiences dominated by pleasurable feelings and more rarely dominated by distressed feelings. This book presents a summary of 40 years of research on NDEs. It contains 22 drowning NDE accounts and recommendations for how water safety professionals can use NDE-related information in their work with people they successfully resuscitate.

If you think that statistics has nothing to say about what you do or how you could do it better, then you are either wrong or in need of a more interesting job. Stephen Senn explains here how statistics determines many decisions about medical care, from allocating resources for health, to determining which drugs to license, to cause-and-effect in relation to disease. He tackles big themes: clinical trials and the development of medicines, life tables, vaccines and their risks or lack of them, smoking and lung cancer and even the power of prayer. He entertains with puzzles and paradoxes and covers the lives of famous statistical pioneers. By the end of the book the reader will see how reasoning with probability is essential to making rational decisions in medicine, and how and when it can guide us when faced with choices that impact on our health and even life.
