BOOKS OF THE DEAD: Manuals for Living and Dying

Death and afterlife have inspired artists for millennia, from the Ancient Egyptian guides to the underworld to the Bardo Thodol of Tibet; and more. Grof explains how these fantastic and compelling visions gave rise to the art of "dying before dying," and explains how research on human consciousness may bring us closer than ever to the realms beyond death. Fully illustrated, some in color.
