Summary: “The phrase ‘out-of-body experience’ is widely used today because of Robert Monroe's courage to publicly recount his own experiences back in the 1970s. This compelling biography delves into the private world of Robert Monroe, the pioneer of consciousness research, tracing his journey from a New York radio engineer to the founding of The Monroe Institute”--Provided by publisher.
