Impressions of Near-Death Experiences by Robert Christophor Coppes presents excerpts from over 100 experiencers' accounts organized by categories like Unconditional Love, The Life Review, Veridical Observations, Interconnection with All, and Aftereffects. By presenting a specific aspect of the NDE from several different experiencers, the reader gets a more in-depth and nuanced impression of the experience. NDEs come alive and this effect multiplies as the reader progresses through the book. The message from these stories will touch a truth that is deep within you—an inner core that you can trust.

The Self Does Not Die (Second Edition) by Titus Rivas, Anny Dirven, and Rudolf Smit has 24 new cases of verified paranormal phenomena from near-death experiences (NDEs), now totaling 128 cases—100 additional pages. 

Each of the nine chapters with veridical paranormal cases has at least one new case added. There are seven new cases occurring during cardiac arrest or similar conditions. Some of these cases are among the most evidential NDE cases to date. For example, Stephanie Arnold's account (Case 3.39) has at least nine elements that were idiosyncratic and purely visual in nature, occurring when she was physically unable to see them, yet they were corroborated by eyewitnesses, frequently by the person whom Arnold perceived. Four of the witnesses were the principal members of her medical team, whose corroborative testimonies were video recorded.

The question of the relationship of brain activity to consciousness in Chapter 3 is expanded and brought up to date, including a critique of the recently released AWARE II Study by Dr. Sam Parnia. One of Parnia's critics noted that none of the subjects from the two AWARE studies who reported conscious recollections had any EEG data: "It is entirely false to say there is an association of brain activity with NDEs."
