Mortal Minds: The Biology of Near Death Experiences
Skeptical Inquirer, Sept-Oct, 2005
Mortal Minds: The Biology of Near Death Experiences. Dr. G.M. Woerlee. Prometheus Books, Amherst, New York. 282 pp. $25, hardcover. Dr. G.M. Woerlee, an anesthesiologist, investigates the history of near death experience lore, and the nature of death itself, as he attempts to unravel the mystery of what really happens when we die.
Through his medical research, he stumbles upon the enigmatic theories behind "nocturnal demonic attacks," and grapples with his own philosophical hurdles. The book is largely based in biology, as Woerlee explains the normal sensations our body produces while dying. In the process he provides a better understanding of what happens to our bodies, as well as our minds, as we die.
