- Synopsis
- Book Jackets: "Katie, a young child who nearly drowned, hovered on the brink of death for nearly three days and was kept alive by machines. When she awoke, she told a strange story of an incredible spiritual journey, which scientists recognized as a near-death experience. According to Dr. Melvin Morse, Katie's story and many others like it prove the validity and beauty of near-death experiences. This book is a culmination of Dr. Morse's years of scientific research into near-death experiences, much of which was published in the American Medical Association's pediatric journal. Through his research into near-death experiences among children, Dr. Morse hopes adults will learn to fear death less." Dr. Morse was the first researcher to explore the subject of near-death experiences in children. Because many of the children he had investigated did not have a religious background or any religious influences, these experiences give validity and credibility to the near-death phenomenon as encompassing systematic elements and patterns.
