Sub par

Of all of the books I've read on death, dying, the afterlife, spiritual visitations,OBEs, NDEs, etc. this has to be the most poorly written. Books by Dr. Raymond Moody, Ms. Kubler Ross and Dr. Gary Schwartz and his team offer much, much more. More clarity, more information and much more engaging script. I'm sad to say I was very disappointed.

Never Be Afraid Again....

The day after I finished reading this book, a friend of mine let me know that his dad had passed away while in hospice for less than a week. I found it comforting to find out that the situation had been a positive for the family, but the way I found out was not from my friend's report, but from Yvonne Perry's book "More Than Meets the Eye." I'm not new to this subject. As a healing practitioner and psychic-medium, I find the study of death, dying, the afterlife, and reincarnation among my most favorite things to discuss, and I read voraciously about it. Yvonne's book is a wonderful addition to my library with vast knowledge about a range of topics including religious viewpoints, personal accounts, and extremely helpful tips for anyone who is dealing with a dying relative, hospice care, suicide, and euthenasia. These are not necessarily topics we want to deal with head-on, but I found the ones I shyed away from most were the ones I got the most out of. You can tell that Yvonne Perry has a terrific zest for life and sense of humor. I felt lighter just reading the book as if a healing was taking place. Her research is apparent as she weaves the information together with first hand stories from others who have had experiences, and referencing other authors and experts. The addition of Yvonne's personal opinion rounds out the book with one of honesty, truth, and comfort. I enjoyed reading this book and especially the first-hand stories. The book completely validates my personal belief system that we are souls living a human experience, and just passing through to learn what we most need to know. I thank Yvonne for this book and her knowledge on the subject. I will also highly recommend this book since I know it can help many people during a difficult and transitional time. Quite honestly, one should never be afraid of death again.

For All Who Wonder What's On the Other Side

Who hasn't wondered about what's on the other side of this life? Even with explanations offered by faith and religion, most of us continue to harbor doubts and fears for ourselves and those we love. In this gentle book, author Yvonne Perry offers comfort and insight about what happens when we die and what waits on the other side. Though well documented and researched, Yvonne's work is not a detached, scholarly report. She writes with passion and love, sharing her personal stories of near death experience and those of countless others. Through the intimate stories of those who have crossed over and returned, as well as stories from people who have had contact with those who have died, we are given an understanding of "...eternal souls with ongoing missions; that time exists only on earth; and that everything is happening simultaneously." Commenting on her personal journey, Yvonne adds, "It dawned on me that being in human form is only one way we progress spiritually on our path back to our Creator." She shares her own journey to understanding and offers comforting reassurance that our loved ones can and often do communicate with us. She says: "Our loved ones who have crossed over communicate with us in a variety of ways. They may bring a familiar smell, or leave coins, feathers or other objects in our path. They may appear as a bird, an animal or take human form. They may come to us in our dreams, or may be the voice we hear in our head. No matter how you sense their presence you can be assured that YOU'RE NOT CRAZY! They really are near and they want to communicate." Yvonne Perry is especially sensitive to those whose religious beliefs do not adequately answer all their questions, or whose experiences don't match what they've been taught. No matter what your current beliefs, everyone can benefit from this wonderful book of insight, comfort, and loving reassurance.Yvonne Perry's own words say it best: "The point of this book is not to persuade you that one way is correct or incorrect, or to create a new doctrine, but rather to offer information and insight that may asist you in creating your own beliefs about this mysterious process of transitioning back to God/Source. Many people refuse to consider any explanation that doesn't match the viewpoints they already own. If you are convinced ahead of time (like I was years ago) that something is or isn't true, you will be tempted to find data that substantiates your belief. Therefore, I encourage you to keep an open mind and consider the ideas presented in this book as if you were in your car, curiously trying out a new road to see where it might lead. You may find that it brings you to a new or better understanding of death and afterlife. You may discover a road less traveled, and realize it was running parallel to your familiar route all along. Perhaps you, too, will see more than meets the eye." Perry closes her book with these comforting words: "Do not be afraid! If death is upon you, rebi

More Than Meets The Eye

This is simply an amazing book which is informative, easily understood and absolutely real. It dispels the fear of death and soothingly shows that our souls never die; they just continue to evolve. Communications from loved ones who have passed on are beautifully illustrated and give comfort in knowing that they are but a thought away. The stories within are compelling and no nonsense. I couldn't put this book down and although I am no stranger to these beliefs and knowings, it was refreshing to be able to regain the assurance that is provided in the pages within. If you have questions, they will be answered. If you have doubts, keep an open mind and take faithfully the messages given in this marvelous compendium of channeled wisdom. If you already know, then the words will remind you that we are not alone. Whatever you do, don't let this book get away. It is not selling or preaching, just giving truths. You don't want to be left out.

A Reassuring Read

This book offers something for everyone. Whether you are new to learning about the near death experience (NDE) or have studied the phenomenon for years, this title holds a number of insights. Filled with multiple personal stories told from several points of view (including friends and relatives of the departed as well as those who've experienced an NDE), the stories are enlightening and comforting. Many people question what will happen in the hereafter. Perry's book offers reassurance and comfort to those who've recently lost a loved one or are questioning their own existence.

enlightening

The book was serendipity. At age 55, I realized that I was on the downhill slide, and white knuckling it, on the way down. My fear of death led me in search of reassurance, answers, and peace. This book gave it to me. The stories were told by every day people and by the author as well. I felt a great sense of relief and peace upon finishing the book. Dale Morrison
