Synopsis
According to a Gallup Poll, as many as eight million Americans have had at least one near-death experience. This fascinating phenomenon has been the focus of much investigation in recent years -- but its after-effects, the ways that near-death experiences can dramatically change both the personalities and lives of survivors for years to come, have never been explored in depth until now.
Based on extensive interviews with over two hundred near-death survivors and thousands of their friends and relatives, Atwater, herself a "survivor" of three near-death experiences, examines the major positive and negative after-effects which survivors experience, including:
* a shifted view of physical reality and disorientation in the world of time and space
* expanded intuitive and psychic abilities
* spiritual transformation
* difficulty with communication and relationships and an inability to personalize emotions and feelings, especially those of love.
COMING BACK TO LIFE also provides a specific recovery plan for assisting near-death survivors in their return to "ordinary living." It is a compassionate and invaluable resource for the survivors and those who love them.

Atwater had an experience that changed her life: she died. Or rather, she almost died. Like millions of other people around the world, she had survived a Near-Death Experience (NDE). Compelled to share this experience with others, she wrote COMING BACK TO LIFE, an account that became an instant sensation, and is not considered a classic on the subject of NDE. But the story didn't end there. What followed after her NDE was as profound as the experience itself ---- and would send her on an exploration of mind and heart. She learned that, like her, many survivors of NDE had experienced after-effects that were often life-altering, and sometimes frightening. In this fully updated book, Atwater shares her extraordinary story, and those of other survivors, including fascinating accounts of what happened in the months and even years, that followed their NDE. Since COMING BACK TO LIFE was first published in 1988, she has interviewed thousands of survivors about their personal, and often remarkable transformations. Many had increased psychic ability, enhanced intellect and creativity, heightened senses nd spirituality, as well as confusion and depression. All of them had the desire to change their lives in some way. COMING BACK TO LIFE is fascinating reading not only for survivors of NDE and those close to them, but also for anyone interested in the growing field of spirituality and consciousness transformation.".
