Pediatrician Dr. Melvin Morse discusses how, after five years of interviews, he has come to accept that there is something underlying Near Death Experiences. He argues that, owing to the universiality of the event, the experiences must either be real or a product of the trama of almost dying. He has conducted research with adults who had near death experiences as children, to eliminate the influence of 30 years of media hype about the event. He has found common descriptions not only among this test group, but among all cultures around the world. He concludes by discussing laboratory results that further substantiate his findings.|NEAR DEATH EXPERIENCES : CLOSER TO THE LIGHT / Melvin Morse| interviewed by Pamela Burton. - SERIES: Philosopher stone - Pediatrician Dr. Melvin Morse discusses how, after five years of interviews, he has come to accept that there is something underlying Near Death Experiences.
