The Journal of Near-Death Studies (JNDS) is a unique scholarly publication, being the only peer-reviewed journal dedicated exclusively to the field of near-death studies. It is cross-disciplinary in nature, offering insights and research from various fields related to near-death experiences (NDEs). The journal was first published in 1981 and, up until 2018, was released quarterly. However, since 2019, it has been published three times a year, with each volume corresponding to a calendar year and containing Spring, Summer, and Fall issues.
