Book: Near-Death Experiences Scientific Perspectives on Stories of Personal Truth

I see this clinical book on Near-Death Experiences and related Out of Body Experiences, "Near-Death Experiences
Scientific Perspectives on Stories of Personal Truth" by Professor Raymond Romand, Professor Günter Ehret and Professor Steven Laureys has just been published. I say clinical, because it's very expensive, so unlikely to be purchased by non-professionals.

Romand and Ehret published a paper 2 years ago on the same subject (link below), and it's probably all one needs to understand their perspective:

I have only skipped through the OBE areas of the paper... but it seems like they've worked out these experiences probably involve the brain, and are related to the brain being energy starved, which results in "..hallucination-like memories of actually perceived hallucinations...", which are more related to sensory dislocation from the patients later period of recovery... :-)

You weren't kidding. Even by the standards of academic books, this one is unbelievably expensive. I don't get it either, because out of the masses of books from the same publisher (Cambridge University Press) that I've come across, I haven't seen any other that's this pricy.

A real shame as I'd like to read it but can't justify it for so much money.

Skimming their paper, which I'll read in full at some point, I find it a bit strange that they cite the following self-published book by Woerlee:

Woerlee, G. M. (2013). Illusory souls. Leiden: G.M. Woerlee

but they don't cite Greyson's 2021 book. If they'll cite Woerlee I don't see how they could leave out Greyson's for being a popular-level work or something like that.
