The Last Frontier – A Groundbreaking Scientific and Spiritual Exploration of Life After Death

What truly happens when we die? And what if death is not an end—but an invitation to awaken?
In The Last Frontier, Dr. Julia Assante—Ph.D. in Ancient Near Eastern History (Columbia University), consciousness researcher, and professional intuitive—presents one of the most thorough and compassionate investigations into life after death ever published.

Bridging academic research with direct spiritual insight, this book shows how ancient cultures, modern science, and contemporary experiences all point to one profound truth:
Consciousness continues beyond death.

A Unique Scientific and Experiential Approach

The Last Frontier draws on a broad range of interdisciplinary sources:

Studies on Near-Death Experiences and After-Death Communication

Research in quantum biology, consciousness science, and parapsychology

Historical and sociopolitical analysis of afterlife beliefs in ancient cultures

Thousands of testimonies from therapists, physicians, grief counselors, and the bereaved

Julia Assante’s own professional work as a regression therapist and medium

“The social historian side of me examines the various constructions of the afterlife from ancient Egypt and Mesopotamia to the present, showing how cultures created different versions of the afterlife to serve specific sociopolitical agendas.”
Dr. Julia Assante
