Brigitte Muehlegger is quick to give her "summary" of
the Griffin book at:

Regardless of what Muehlegger writes (and I wonder if
she has even read Griffin's book) Griffin's chapter on
OBEs is an excellent treatment and deals in detail
with both the extrasomatic and intrasomatic hypotheses
concerning OBEs. Notice Muehlegger ignores commenting
on this aspect of Griffin's book.
BTW, anyone interested in parapsychology and psychic
phenomena in general will find Griffin's book full of
thoughtful and insightful commentary.
The title is given below:
