I just got done reading a book called "Journeys out of the Body" by a guy named Robert Monroe. Going into it, I was worried it may be a bunch of BS. Really though, it was a cool little investigation into consciousness and dreams. Monroe claims to have had several out-of-the-body experiences and details them in the book. He discussed and was studied by mental health professionals, and a psychiatrist wrote an afterword to the book about an EEG he did on Monroe.
I recommend the book to anyone interested in consciousness.
