<p><strong>'Fascinating, the analysis/explanation, drawing on cognate research into religious and mystical experiences, is of a sophisticated order clear, lucid, engaging and to the point. Highly recommended!'</strong> - <em>Paul Heelas, Lancaster University</em><br /><br /><strong>'Encyclopedia and scholarly; it pushes the boundaries further than any work on this topic in the last few years. There hasn't been anything quite like this for a long while.'</strong> - <em>Allan Kellahear, La Trobe University, Australia</em><br /><br /><strong>"A fascinating overivew ... extremely illuminating for those interested in the question of NDEs ... the value of this work is in bringing together a range of different perspectives."</strong> - <em>Jeremy Carrette, University of Stirling</em><br /><br /><strong>"The most exciting study of NDE's that I have seen in 10 years."</strong> - <em>Allan Kellehear, La Trobe University, Melbourne</em><br /><br /><strong>'Research into NDEs constitutes a fascinating and fast-growing field. In </strong><em>Religion, Spirituality and the Near-Death Experience</em><strong>, Mark Fox has admirably brought together a mass of this research carried out over the past thirty years ... This he presents in a clear and unbiased fashion, leaving the reader to make up their own minds on the issues.'</strong> - <em>Russell Stannard, Times Literary Supplement</em><br /><br /><strong>'Mark Fox ... has written the most sensible, accessible and helpful books so far on near-death experience'</strong> - <em>Rt Revd David Atkinson, Church Times</em><br /><br /><strong>'In </strong><em>Religion</em><strong>, [Mark Fox] attempts to connect the latest research in near-death experiences to philosophical musings. His efforts yields plenty of compelling first-person yarns, culled from more than 100 survivors.'</strong> - <em>Psychology Today</em><br /><br /><strong>'His treatment is a model of interdisciplinary investigation, mapping out evidence coherently and even-handedly ...'</strong> - <em>Milltown Studies</em><br /><br /><strong>'</strong><em>Religion, SPirituality and the Near-Death EXperience</em><strong> is the most sophisticated philosophical and theological analysis of NDE to appear to date.'</strong> - <em>Network</em></p><p><strong>'In short,</strong> <em>Religion, Spirituality and the Near-Death Experience</em> <strong>provides an excellent introduction and overview of research on near-death experiences, with a special emphasis on the religious implications thereof.'</strong> - <em>Studies in Religion</em></p><p><strong>'[Fox] has written a comprehensive guide to a subject which has been growing over the last twenty-five years ... a welcome standby for serious students of the subject.'</strong> - <em>Christian Parapsychologist</em></p>

This dramatic and sustained response to decades of research into near-death experiences (NDEs) is the first book to credibly bridge the gap between the competing factions of science and spirituality. Neither a religious argument touting NDEs as hard evidence for God, nor a scientific rebuke to religious interpretations, it balances investigation of these much-reported yet baffling phenomena, and brings fresh urgency to the study of our hopes for a life beyond.
