After the publication of the bestseller \u003ci\u003eThe ThirdMan Factor\u003c\/i\u003e, which examined the phenomenon of explorers who found themselves at the edge of death and experienced a benevolent presence that led them out of the impossible, John Geiger was inundated with firsthand accounts from people who had the same experience -- a vivid presence that aided them as they faced crises ranging from physical and sexual assaults to automobile accidents, airplane crashes, serious illness, childbirth, and depression. \u003ci\u003eThe Angel Effect\u003c\/i\u003e examines this phenomenon, and Geiger argues that it has the potential to aid us, even to save us, and asks whether it is a trainable skill. He investigates the numerous experiences along with historical accounts and scientific research as he reveals compelling discoveries about the human brain and our innate capacity to hope.","brand":"Grand Central Publishing","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67893341388978,"sku":"9781602861916","price":17.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0536\/7418\/0786\/files\/9781602861916.jpg?v=1793833276","url":"https:\/\/shop.hachettebookgroup.com\/products\/the-angel-effect-9781602861916","provider":"Hachette Book Group","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
