Beyond the Threshold introduces readers to afterlife beliefs and
experiences in world religions. The second edition has been revised
and updated throughout, including a new chapter on afterlife
beliefs and practices in selected African traditions, new research
on the afterlife and near-death experiences, the addition of key
words and definitions to each chapter, and more. Christopher M.
Moreman offers an introduction to afterlife beliefs in ancient
cultures, which are essential to understanding the roots of many
modern ideas about death. He examines the folklore and doctrines of
major world religions, including Judaism, Christianity, Islam,
Hinduism, Buddhism, Chinese religions, and several African
traditions. He also discusses psychic phenomena across traditions,
such as mediums, near-death and out-of-body experiences, and
past-life memories. While ultimately the afterlife remains
unknowable, the second edition of this unique, in-depth exploration
of both beliefs and experiences can help readers reach their own
understanding of the afterlife and how to live.
