Sanders describes different types of Nearing Death Awareness (NDA) such as deathbed visions, pre-death dreams, and symbolic language, guiding family members and caregivers of the dying on how to respond. She discusses how NDA is a potential means for spiritual growth for those facing death and their families, friends, and caregivers, with an aim for readers to gain an "enhanced sense of personal spirituality" and a greater view of existence beyond reality. Both author and subject indexes are included. Sanders, a certified clinical hypnotherapist, teaches seminars on transpersonal topics. Annotation ©2007 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
