Paul Perry
Paul Perry is the co-author of four New York Times bestsellers, including Saved by the Light (which was made into a popular movie) and Evidence of the Afterlife. He has co-authored five books with Dr. Raymond Moody, including a memoir Paranormal, due to be published in February 2012. His books have been published in more than 30 languages around the world.
Paul is also a documentary filmmaker whose work has appeared on worldwide television. His best known film, Jesus, the Lost Years was first the subject of a book he wrote for Random House, which follows the trail believed to be used by the Holy Family as they fled into Egypt to escape the murderous soldiers of King Herod. He has produced and directed several other films, including one on 18th Century piracy in Madagascar that aired on History Channel in 2011.
His most recent work, Afterlife, explores mankind's most nagging question, What happens when we die? This and other questions about the Afterlife are scientifically explored through modern research into near-death experiences. Through interviews with noted researchers Raymond Moody, MD, PhD, and Jeffrey Long, MD, this documentary explores the evidence of the afterlife using insightful interviews with researchers, emotional case studies, and crisply done re-creations.
"NDEs are spiritual events of staggering magnitude and complexity that have the power to change our attitudes toward death and life" says director Paul Perry. "There are reasons people are transformed when they return from a brush with death, one of which is the confidence they gain in knowing that a fresh new world awaits our last heartbeat. Another, especially for the physically ill, is the discovery that we leave our body behind and continue on as spirits free of earthy pain."
Paul is a graduate of Arizona State University, Antioch University in Los Angeles, and a former fellow at the prestigious Gannett Center for Media Studies at Columbia University in New York City. He taught magazine writing at the University of Oregon in Eugene, Oregon, and was Executive Editor at American Health magazine, a winner of the National Magazine Awards for General Excellence. Since becoming a full-time writer, Paul has written or co-written more than 20 books on a variety of topics, including biography, health, medical science, and history.

En retraçant son parcours, l'auteur du best-seller La Vie après la vie approfondit la question qui a conduit toute son existence : y a-t-il une vie dans l'au-delà ?
Que se passe-t-il après la mort ? Atteint d'une maladie non diagnostiquée et en pleine dépression, le Dr Raymond Moody en a eu un premier aperçu lorsqu'il tente de se suicider à l'âge de 47 ans. Ce qu'il entrevoit alors le pousse à s'interroger plus encore sur la fascination pour l'au-delà qui l'anime depuis sa prime enfance.
À 23 ans seulement, Raymond Moody est le premier à s'engager dans la recherche sur les Expériences de Mort Imminente, un domaine inexploré à cette époque. Recueillant des témoignages et s'essayant à des expériences sous hypnose, il s'emploie à examiner la possibilité de vies antérieures et de réincarnation dans le but d'instaurer un dialogue entre les vivants et les morts. Dans son centre de recherche, le " Théâtre de l'Esprit ", de nombreuses personnes se sont prêtées elles aussi à son questionnement, un questionnement que la science avait exclu de son champ d'investigation.
À la fois autobiographie et compte-rendu fi dèle d'un cheminement philosophique, spirituel et scientifi que, ce livre nous fait, l'air de rien, changer de millénaire, et nous restitue l'accès à un univers dont l'entrée s'était jusqu'alors dérobée à notre quête de savoir.
L'ouvrage de référence de celui que leNew York Timesa surnommé " le père de l'Expérience de Mort Imminente ".
40 ans après sa première publication aux États-Unis, la nouvelle édition d'un livre-culte.
Vendu à plus de 13 millions d'exemplaires dans le monde,La Vie après la vieest le livre-révélation sur les expériences de mort imminente.
Grâce aux procédés modernes de réanimation, des hommes et des femmes, après avoir été considérés comme cliniquement morts ou avoir approché la mort de très près, sont ramenés à la vie. Nombreux sont ceux qui rapportent de cette aventure des souvenirs similaires : vision d'une lueur brillante au bout d'un long tunnel, présence d'êtres chers attendant " de l'autre côté "...
Convaincu que ce phénomène, encore inexpliqué, revêt une importance extrême du point de vue médical aussi bien que philosophique ou religieux, le Dr Raymond Moody a atteint la célébrité grâce à ce livre révolutionnaire qui pose l'une des questions fondamentales et inépuisables de l'humanité : y a-t-il une vie après la vie ?
Cette édition anniversaire est enrichie d'une préface d'Eben Alexander, célèbre neurochirurgien et écrivain américain, et d'une postface inédite du Dr Moody.
