About the author
Ornella Corazza is the author of Near-Death Experiences: Exploring the Mind-Body Connection, published by Routledge. The book surveys near-death experiences as a subject that has drawn attention from theologians, sociologists, and neuroscientists alike, and takes a cross-cultural approach, incorporating medical and clinical perspectives alongside the personal accounts more commonly associated with the topic. Rather than advocating a particular interpretation of what near-death experiences mean, the book sets out the range of dominant scientific explanations that have been proposed, situating the phenomenon at the boundary of medicine, psychology, and the study of consciousness. Published in an academic imprint, it is aimed at readers who want a scholarly, comparative treatment of near-death experience research rather than a first-person account or a spiritual interpretation of the phenomenon.
