Originally titled "Life after Death", this book deals with the "soul" (or consciousness) leaving the body at the time of death.
I can not imagine "consciousness" leaving the brain and function in the "'air" as many Near Death Experiencers try to make us believe. There is a growning number of NDE presentations, mainly on YouTube videos. These NDEers often see their bodies from the "ceiling". Perhaps they have a dream of some sort that could be actually...

Es éste, sin lugar a dudas, uno de los libros más representativos de G. K. Chesterton y probablemente su mejor ensayo. Una especie de autobiografía espiritual y vagabunda que completa lo iniciado en su libro Herejes, de 1905 (Acantilado, 2007).
