Might we be parts of a divine mind? Could anything like an
afterlife make sense? Starting with a Platonic answer to why the
world exists, Immortality Defended suggests we could well be
immortal in all of three separate ways.
- Tackles the fundamental questions posed by our very existence,
among them, "why does the cosmos exist?", "is there a divine mind
or God?", and "in what sense might we have afterlives?"
- Defends a belief in immortality, without the need for a
religious affiliation or rejection of modern science
- Explores the ideas of "Einsteinian immortality", the divine
afterlife, and the theory of an infinite and divine mind
- Draws from the work of a wide-range of philosophers, from
ancient Greece to the present day, and incorporates up-to-date
scientific findings
- Written in a thought-provoking and engaging manner, accessible to anyone intrigued by the wonder of our being
