AFTER WE DIE, WHAT THEN? This book forever rends the veil between Earth and what has been called heaven or paradise, by opening the door on the development of what may be man’s ultimate electronic communication system. It is far from being fantasy or science fiction. Actually, its report of findings from sixteen years of world-wide interdisciplinary research into the basic nature of man correlates with the emerging projections of quantum physics. And it provides, as no other book has ever done, con- firmation that the individual mind, memory banks, personality and soul survive death and the disintegration of the physical body. It shows why the reader cannot die, even by suicide or atomic holocaust. The original manuscript was submitted for critical review to a panel of twenty-two ministers, scientists, priests, physicians, rabbis, educators and psychiatrists from Winnipeg to Capetown and from Tokyo to Zurich. Their unqualified endorsements have been confirmed by many thousands of readers. Translations of the first edition have been well-received in Japan, South America and India. Although confirming the validity of the world’s great religions, it does not preach any new gospel, dogma, creed, religion or “ism”. It is as scientifically accurate as is possible at this stage of man’s evolution. Perhaps its greatest contribution is to show why and how the life we live TODAY determines the quality of life we each will live AFTER we “die”. The book is written in simple and easy-to-understand language. It uses 42 pictures and diagrams to make it possible to treat this complex and mind-expanding subject in less than 200 pages. i Other Books by George W.
