Reddit mentions of Proof of Heaven: A Neurosurgeon's Journey into the Afterlife

The actual title is Proof of Heaven: A Neurosurgeon's Journey into the Afterlife.

Be careful to not confuse neurosurgeon with neurologist or neuroscientist. It's like the difference between an engineer and a scientist. I don't see any reason that a surgeon who knows how to operate on brains would have any special authority to write on the existence of an afterlife.

Here's a description of the book:

tl;dr: He didn't believe in an afterlife until after he suffered some brain damage.

I'm honestly not a big fan of self help books..

I've been reading a lot of books on the afterlife and rebirth these days.

Downloaded this on my kindle..

Scholar of universes and also non-atheist here. I believe in a God, and from the books I've read on the matter (some Brian Greene, Michio Kaku, and also this book written by a neuroscientist), the possibility of a multiverse is very real. I think we live in one. A lot of the evidence for multiverses is supported by the mathematics behind string theory (read this), but it can't be proven because "strings" are 10^-35 meters long (the Planck length). (We can currently only see things as small as 10^-16 meters long--or centimeters long, I forget.)

It is all very interesting to me. In the last book mentioned, the author, a neuroscientist with presumably no idea of a multiverse, said that he saw (I forget how he worded it) "our world as one among many" when he experienced his out-of-body experience. It's a great read for sure.

Everything that I've read or learned points to the idea of multiple universes inhabited by life but no other intelligent life than that which is on our home planet.
