It may sound bold to say, but nearly every major "Main Event" of a Near-Death Experience has already been documented-from the moment of leaving the body to the familiar words, "It is not your time. You must go back." Many who have crossed over describe this otherworldly realm as heaven-and if heaven exists, it doesn't change with time. So, what more is there to learn about the NDE phenomenon?
In The Crossover Experience, a team of three researchers explores the subtler dimensions of Near-Death Experiences-those easily overlooked details hidden behind the headline events. Within these nuances, they uncover remarkable clues that reveal new layers of meaning about what NDEs truly communicate. Often, it's what remains unseen that tells us the most.
Journey with them through 100 of the most extraordinary Near-Death Experiences ever recorded, in search of a deeper, more expansive understanding of what the NDE is really saying: that we are far more than the physical world we perceive. We are not our bodies. Death is not the end-it is a transition into a wider, more profound existence.
"This powerful threesome has created something magical and cerebral in The Crossover Experience. As they take a deeper look at death, they give life more meaning." Jeffery Olsen, Near-Death Experiencer and Author of KNOWING.

Review :
"The Crossover Experience takes you on an amazing, exploratory journey through the world of NDEs. This compelling evidence of the afterlife offers glimpses of the other world realm bringing comfort and hope, along with changing your views on life and death. I highly recommend this book for any serious student of the NDE!"
Anita Moorjani, New York Times best-selling author of Dying to Be Me, What if this Is heaven and Sensitive is the New Strong.
"This powerful threesome (DJ Kadagian, Dr. Pim van Lommel and Gregory Shushan, PhD.) has created something magical and cerebral in The Crossover Experience. In a concise and informative way, they have captured the reality and the importance of Near-Death Experiences. As they take a deeper look at death, they give life more meaning. And with more meaning to life, we can discover more direction, more connection, more compassion, and more hope. Their amazing work takes the fear out of dying."
-Jeffery Olsen, Near-Death Experiencer and Author of KNOWING
"A unique, insightful, and rewarding look at the "scientific wrinkle" near-death experiences present."
