Summary:
Contrary to public opinion, death is not a moment in time, such as when the center stops beating, respiration ceases, or the brain stops functioning. Loss of life, rather, is certainly a process-a procedure that can be interrupted well after it has begun. Innovative techniques, such as drastically reducing the patient’s body temperature, have proven to be effective in revitalizing both the mind and body, but studies also show they are just employed in approximately half of the hospitals throughout the USA and about Erasing Death: The Research That Is Rewriting the Boundaries Between Life and Death Europe.
In Erasing Death, Dr. Sam Parnia presents cutting-edge research from the front line of essential care and attention and resuscitation medication that has allowed modern doctors to regularly reverse death, while also losing light on the best mystery: what happens to human being consciousness during and after death. Parnia reveals how medical discoveries centered on conserving lives also have inadvertently raised the possibility that some type of “afterlife” may be distinctively ours, as evidenced with the continuation of the human mind and psyche in the first few hours after death. Questions about the “personal” as well as the “soul” which were once relegated to theology, idea, and even science fiction are now examined afresh according to rigorous medical research.
With physicians such as Parnia at the forefront, we are on the verge of discovering a new universal science of consciousness that reveals the nature of your brain and a future where death is not the final defeat, but is in fact reversible.
