      Product Description

      If there is a heaven, as countless Near-Death Experiences suggest, shouldn't modern science be able to identify its existence? This is the central question with which historian Dr. Jean-Pierre Isbouts embarked on an ambitious research project at Fielding Graduate University, drawing from quantum physics, neuroscience, astrophysics, electromagnetic energy, Asian health practices, faith traditions, and psychic observations. Written in the engaging style that made him a bestselling National Geographic author, Dr. Isbouts guides the reader step by step through the evidence while building an operational model of the afterlife. In the last chapter, he compares this model to Jewish, Christian, Muslim, Hindu and Buddhists concepts of heaven, concluding that our religious ideas have much more in common than we realize.Immersive, witty, and illustrated with astonishing observations by the renowned British psychic Sue Dunderdale Jones, "The Search for Heaven" is the first modern attempt to produce a scientific model of the afterlife that may sway even the staunchest reductionist skeptics.Jean-Pierre Isbouts is Doctoral Professor in the Human Development PhD program of Fielding Graduate University in Santa Barbara, CA, and an award-winning director of documentaries for ABC, PBS, History Channel, A&E and overseas networks. His National Geographic books on biblical history have sold nearly 2 million copies. His website is www.jpisbouts.org.Praise for "The Biblical World""For its scope, beauty, and relevance in today's world, this unparalleled atlas has become a classic." -Booklist"Isbouts writes in a nondenominational style that allows non-expert readers to follow along easily."-American University Libraries. Praise for "Who's Who in the Bible""Isbouts has written an exquisite reference guide to the personalities in the Bible. This well-researched work will complement what is already on your shelf." -Columbia University Libraries"Dr. Jean-Pierre Isbouts is brilliant and did a magnificent job in his research and writing of this book.
