Overview

Science attempts to explain the world without a creator, spirit or design, constantly seeking new information with which to test its theories. Spirituality holds that the most important aspects of the world are beyond human comprehension. It labels this realm spirit, soul, and God. Who is right? Are humans simply a cluster of cells that eventually dies? Is there a greater plan? Leo Kim asked himself these questions again and again. As a scientist developing new drugs for the treatment of cancer, Kim felt powerless as he watched patients die, an experience that led him on a decades-long quest to understand human existence. Healing the Rift chronicles his metaphysical and scientific journey. Kim reveals how recent scientific breakthroughs led him to the belief that the world is a blending of mind and spirit, explaining the science behind his discovery in entertaining, approachable terms that help readers make sense of their own search for answers.

This book will excite and delight anyone who is ready to move beyond the prevailing dogmas of both conventional science and religion. <br>-- Larry Dossey, MD. Author of Healing Words and The Power of Premonitions <p> Congratulations to Leo Kim for writing a terrific, far-seeing, integrative and very readable book! He has great writing skill and a remarkable ability to communicate very complex material in a lucid format. This book is highly recommended for all readers, especially those sincerely interested in the connections between science and spirituality. There is great wisdom in this book! <br>- William A. Tiller, Ph.D. Professor Emeritus of Materials Science, Stanford University I found Leo Kim's Healing the Rift riveting. He offered easy-to-understand word pictures of scientific findings that described what the vast majority of near-death experiencers actually encounter during their episodes. He showed how the latest in science brings us closer to what our faith traditions have been telling us for thousands of years. Lots of books try to do this, but Leo Kim's does this one better. He winds up walking us through the illusions of time and space just as experiencers of transformative states really experience it. He gives us words where there are so few. He gives us questions that become answers that lead to heartfelt sighs of relief that at last... someone took the time to explain the strange but true. <br>- P.M.H. Atwater, L.H.D., researcher of near-deathstates and author of nine books including The Big Book of Near-Death Experiences <p> If ever there was a time for healing to occur between science and spirituality, it is now. Dr. Kim has written a highly readable and graceful book revealing how contemporary science is enabling us to envision and experience the larger spiritual reality of life and the Universe. <br>- Gary E. Schwartz, Ph.D., Professor of Psychology and Medicine, The University of Arizona, and author of The Afterlife Experiments and The G.O.D. Experiments
