What Is it Like to Be Dead? is written by Jens Schlieter and published by Oxford University Press. It's available with International Standard Book Number or ISBN identification 0190888865 (ISBN 10) and 9780190888862 (ISBN 13).
What is it Like to be Dead? offers the first full account of the modern genealogy of "near-death experiences," focusing on the functions of these experiences in the religious field of Western modernity. Emerging as autobiographical narratives, they were used in Christian, esoteric, and spiritist-occult traditions as substantial proof for the survival of death, or the claim that the soul is able to leave the body. Now widely disseminated, they serve functions ranging from reassurance that religious experience is still possible to evidence for the transcultural validity of afterlife beliefs.
