The late Elisabeth Kübler-Ross was a Swiss-American psychiatrist, pioneer in near-death studies, and author of best-seller 'On Death and Dying', where she first discussed her theory of the five stages of grief, aka the "Kübler-Ross model". https://www.ekrfoundation.org/
Philosopher, psychologist, physician and author Raymond Moody, is most widely known for his books about life after death and near-death experiences, a term he coined in 1975 in his best-selling book Life After Life. The American's research explores what happens when a person dies. https://lifeafterlife.com/
