Does evidence really prove a future life, or is it a complex mix of belief and bias?
This critical inquiry examines the scientific value of the alleged evidences for life after death, weighing theories from resurrection to reincarnation and spiritism against careful scrutiny and documented experience. It aims to separate fact from wishful thinking and offers a rigorous look at what science can and cannot confirm about immortality.
Across chapters that study resurrection, reincarnation, spiritism, and related philosophies, the book compares physical, chemical, physiological, and psychological perspectives. It challenges common assumptions and traces the reasoning used to argue for and against a future life.
- Grounds major theories (resurrection, reincarnation, spiritualism) and their scientific plausibility
- Critically examines spiritualist methods and the Society for Psychical Research
- Explores how mind and body are considered in light of evidence from multiple disciplines
Ideal for readers seeking a clear, critical look at the question of immortality and the limits of scientific proof.
