"Dr. Pim van Lommel, a renowned cardiologist, was so inspired by the stories his patients told of their Near Death Experiences (NDEs) that he became the first medical practitioner to risk his reputation with a full, systematic trial into the phenomenon. He interviewed 344 heart patients at his hospital who had all clinically died, some for five minutes or longer, before being resuscitated. Of these, 62 -- or 18 per cent -- reported some ongoing experience after the medical monitors had pronounced them to be dead. Half were aware they were 'dead,' and 15 had out-of-body experiences where they were aware of the actions of the hospital staff around their body. In 2001, Van Lommel published the results of his study in the esteemed British medical journal, The Lancet. Van Lommel's article was a worldwide sensation and serves as the basis for this book. Van Lommel claims these are authentic experiences which cannot be reduced to the imagination, psychosis or an oxygen deficiency; people are permanently changed by an NDE. In After Life, Van Lommel explains how people who are clinically dead can have such a transformative experience. He illustrates his argument with stories of people who have gone through an NDE. In Van Lommel's opinion, the current materialistic view of the relationship between the brain and consciousness held by most physicians, philosophers and psychologists is too restricted for a proper understanding of this phenomenon. Our consciousness does not always coincide with the functioning of our brain"--… (altro)

Fascinating research and speculation about near-death experiences. (

Este libro ofrece abundantes pruebas científicas de que las «experiencias cercanas a la muerte» son un fenómeno que no puede atribuirse a la imaginación, la psicosis o la falta de oxígeno. Los hechos evidencian que la consciencia es algo mucho más vasto y complejo que el cerebro y que sigue existiendo pese a la ausencia de toda función cerebral. Pim van Lommel introduce estas experiencias en un amplio contexto cultural que va desde las diferentes visiones religiosas del pasado hasta los nuevos presupuestos de la física cuántica, en donde estos fenómenos tienen un lugar coherente dentro de sus modelos teóricos.

Een paar jaar geleden publiceerde cardioloog Pim van Lommel een artikel in het gerenommeerde medische tijdschrift 'The Lancet' over zijn onderzoek naar bijna-doodervaringen (BDE) bij 344 Nederlandse patiënten. Zij hadden een hartstilstand in het ziekenhuis gehad. Van hen bleken er 62 een BDE te hebben meegemaakt. Sindsdien kunnen we niet meer om het verschijnsel 'bijna-doodervaring' heen. Het is een authentieke ervaring die niet te herleiden is tot fantasie, psychose of zuurstoftekort; een BDE verandert en mensen blijvend. Van Lommel geeft in dit boek een wetenschappelijk verantwoorde uitleg van de BDE. Dat doet hij niet voor zijn vakbroeders, maar voor een lekenpubliek. Hij doorspekt zijn betoog met verhalen van mensen die een BDE hebben meegemaakt. Met de meesten van hen heeft Van Lommel persoonlijk contact gehad. Kern van Van Lommels betoog is dat de heersende, materialistische visie van artsen, filosofen en psychologen op de relatie tussen hersenen en bewustzijn te beperkt is om het verschijnsel te kunnen duiden. Volgens Van Lommel zijn er goede redenen om aan te nemen dat ons bewustzijn niet altijd samenvalt met het functioneren van onze hersenen. Het bewustzijn kan ook los van ons lichaam functioneren. Pim van Lommel (1943) was van 1977 tot 2003 als cardioloog verbonden aan het Rijnstate Ziekenhuis in Arnhem. Sindsdien houdt hij over de hele wereld lezingen over BDE, en de relatie tussen bewustzijn en hersenfunctie.

De lezingen zijn trouwens ook heel erg de moeite waard, net zo als het boek. (
