In this intimate and powerful re-examination of his best-selling book “Proof of Heaven,” Dr. Alexander looks at the past 2 1/2 years of his life spent in trying to reconcile his rich spiritual experience with contemporary physics and cosmology. Once an agnostic, he is now convinced that his remarkable near-death journey is totally consistent with the leading edges of scientific understanding today.
Alexander’s book has been criticized by scientists who described Alexander’s near-death experience account as “alarmingly unscientific.” But Alexander’s account rests on repeated assertions that his visions of heaven occurred while his cerebral cortex was shut down, inactivated, completely shut down, totally off-line, and stunned to complete inactivity.
“I wrote a truthful account of my experiences in ‘Proof of Heaven’ and have acknowledged in the book both my professional and personal accomplishments and my setbacks,” said Alexander. “I stand by every word in this book and have made its message the purpose of my life.”
