Authors

Kenneth Ring, Ph.D. is Professor Emeritus of Psychology at the University of Connecticut and CoFounder and Past President of the International Association for NearDeath Studies. Regarded by many as the "Dean of NDE Researchers," he is the Founding Editor of the Journal of NearDeath Studies and the author of several books including his best selling book Life At Death, Heading toward Omega, and The Omega Project. He lives in Kentfield, California.

While providing many accounts of neardeath experiences (NDEs) from men, women, and children of all ages and backgrounds, Lessons from the Light is much more than just an inspiring collection of NDEs. In Lessons neardeath expert Kenneth Ring extracts the pure gold of the NDE and with a beautiful balance of sound research and human insight reveals the practical wisdom held within these experiences. As Stanley Krippner states, “In this remarkable book, Ring presents evidence that merely learning about the neardeath experience has similar positive effects to those reported by people who actually have had neardeath experiences. Kenneth Ring is one of the few authors whose gifts include the capacity to transform their readers’ lives.”

"A magnificent achievement! Ring's new book is the best book on NDEs! For while he is indeed one of the leading scholars in the field, he now brings in his heart and shows those of us who haven't had an NDE how to use the inspiration of NDEs to change our lives."
