Eben Alexander III is an American neurosurgeon and author known for his controversial book "Proof of Heaven: A Neurosurgeon's Journey into the Afterlife." Born in 1953, Alexander gained widespread attention after publishing his account of a near-death experience he had in 2008.
In his work, he challenges the conventional scientific view that consciousness is solely a product of brain activity, asserting that consciousness can exist independently of the body and survive physical death.
Alexander's claims have sparked debate within scientific and spiritual communities, as he argues that science can and will eventually prove the existence of consciousness beyond the brain and its survival after death.
