Description - Prospects for Immortality by J Robert Adams

Prospects for Immortality theorises how matters concerning the birth of the universe, its ultimate fate, and the creation, evolution, and final destiny of life on earth co-exist with regenerated consciousness. Readers of this volume will be prompted to think about the basic concepts of life, death, and consciousness in a unique way. Written in a style that entertains and informs, author J. Robert Adams speculates on how the transfer of memory and consciousness into the hereafter occurs in conjunction with the physical, chemical, and historical facts already established by science. The book initially explores the subject of life after death and conjectures that consciousness survives death, and it proposes a mechanism by which nature preserves awareness for the duration of time. The title then discusses temporary death, time of death, transplantation of organs, fear of death, and cryogenics as well as exploring existence by addressing questions posed by the philosopher Soren Kierkegaard: Where am I? Who am I? How did I come to be here? This challenging work will tease the imagination of both the amateur and the professional.
Apart from its focus on life after death, Prospects for Immortality has something of interest for the cognitive psychologist, the neuroscientist, the philosopher, and the theologian. Futurists will feel quite at home among these unexplored ideas. Laymen will become better acquainted with cosmology, biology, and religion.
