The map of heaven

the long version

After writing Proof of Heaven, Dr. Eben Alexander heard from the thousands affected by his story. He studied what the world's religious traditions and philosophers have said about the soul's survival of death, often surprised that those voices were in synch. Part metaphysical detective story, part manual for living, The Map of Heaven explores our spiritual history and the birth of modern science, showing how we forgot, and are now at last remembering, who we really are and what our true destiny is.
