Some people argue it can be explained by hallucinations produced by the brain as it loses adequate blood supply and nutrients[citation needed], while others state that such an explanation cannot account for all the evidence.[1][2] The experience has become more common in recent times, especially since the development of cardiac resuscitation techniques. Popular interest in near-death experiences was sparked by Raymond Moody Jr's 1975 book Life after Life and the founding of the International Association for Near-death Studies (IANDS) in 1978. According to a Gallup poll approximately eight million Americans claim to have had a near-death experience.[3] NDEs are among the phenomena studied in the field of parapsychology, psychology, psychiatry[4] and hospital medicine.[5][6]"]]> http://www.stumbleupon.com/url/en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Near-death_experience
