7 Reasons to Believe in the Afterlife: A Doctor Reviews the Case for Consciousness after Death

by Jean Jacques Charbonier

An uplifting study of the scientific evidence for the afterlife from an experienced anesthesiologist/intensive care physician • Details meticulously recorded and hospital-verified cases of near-death experiences • Cites scientific research on NDEs to refute the standard objections of doubters and materialists point by point • Explores out-of-body experiences, sessions with mediums, electronic communication with the deceased, and other signs from the afterlife Over the course of his 25-year career as an anesthesiologist and intensive care physician, Jean Jacques Charbonier, M.D., gathered hundreds of accounts of patients who returned from clinical death. Across all of these accounts--from patients with vastly different backgrounds--Dr. Charbonier found striking similarities as well as indisputable proof that these experiences were more than hallucinations. He surveyed other physicians, nurses, and professional caregivers and discovered that their patients described the same experiences as well as exhibited the same positive life transformations afterward. Igniting a scientific quest to learn more, he collected more accounts of near-death experiences as well as out-of-body experiences, attended dozens of sessions with mediums, experimented successfully with electronic communication with the deceased (EVP), interviewed hundreds of people who have cared for the dying, and gathered countless inexplicable stories of “signs” from the afterlife. With each experience he studied, he found himself more firmly believing in the survival of consciousness beyond death. Dr. Charbonier distills his findings into 7 reasons to believe in the afterlife, beginning with the more than 60 million people worldwide who have reported a transcendent afterlife experience. He refutes the standard objections of doubters and materialists point by point, citing scientific research on NDEs and the work of pioneers in the field of consciousness studies such as Raymond Moody and Pim van Lommel. Drawing on meticulously recorded and hospital-verified cases, Dr. Charbonier explains that we should not fear death for ourselves or our loved ones. By releasing our fear of death, we can properly prepare for “the final journey.” As those who have returned from death reveal, death is simply a transition and its lessons enable us to live more fully, peacefully, and happily in the now.

The $800 Million Pill: The Truth Behind the Cost of New Drugs

by Merrill Goozner

Why do life-saving prescription drugs cost so much? Drug companies insist that prices reflect the millions they invest in research and development. In this gripping exposé, Merrill Goozner contends that American taxpayers are in fact footing the bill twice: once by supporting government-funded research and again by paying astronomically high prices for prescription drugs. Goozner demonstrates that almost all the important new drugs of the past quarter-century actually originated from research at taxpayer-funded universities and at the National Institutes of Health. He reports that once the innovative work is over, the pharmaceutical industry often steps in to reap the profit. Goozner shows how drug innovation is driven by dedicated scientists intent on finding cures for diseases, not by pharmaceutical firms whose bottom line often takes precedence over the advance of medicine. A university biochemist who spent twenty years searching for a single blood protein that later became the best-selling biotech drug in the world, a government employee who discovered the causes for dozens of crippling genetic disorders, and the Department of Energy-funded research that made the Human Genome Project possible--these engrossing accounts illustrate how medical breakthroughs actually take place. The $800 Million Pill suggests ways that the government's role in testing new medicines could be expanded to eliminate the private sector waste driving up the cost of existing drugs. Pharmaceutical firms should be compelled to refocus their human and financial resources on true medical innovation, Goozner insists. This book is essential reading for everyone concerned about the politically charged topics of drug pricing, Medicare coverage, national health care, and the role of pharmaceutical companies in developing countries.

¡A comer!: El método Estivill para enseñar a comer a los niños

by Dr. Eduard Estivill Montse Domènech

El método del Dr. Estivill para que la hora de comer de los niños deje de ser una pesadilla para los padres. «Ya lo he probado todo y no hay manera de que coma». Para muchos padres, la hora de comer de sus hijos se convierte en un infierno. Esa boca cerrada -que no se abre ni siquiera cuando sacamos todos los juguetes, encendemos el televisor o disfrazamos los platos con su salsa preferida- es nuestra peor pesadilla... Después del éxito experimentado con su método para resolver el problema del insomnio infantil, el doctor Eduard Estivill se preguntó si no podría aplicarse también al problema de la alimentación infantil. Por ello solicitó la ayuda de una peadagoga, Montse Domènech, y entre ambos desarrollaron un método sencillo, práctico, con unas sólidas bases científicas, para enseñar a comer bien, y de todo, a los niños. Después de haber estado poniéndolo en práctica durante tres años, con un porcentaje de éxitos superior al 98%, se han decidido a sacar a la luz este ameno manual que ayudará a los padres a que sus hijos aprendan a comer. «La resistencia de los niños a comer es habitual. Forma parte de su espíritu de rebeldía ante las cosas que se les imponen. Pero en eso consiste educarlos, ¿no? Deben ir aprendiendo que casi todo tiene un momento y un lugar. Y también unas maneras. Para eso son necesarios un método y un tiempo de aprendizaje.»Dr. Eduard Estivill
