Death and the Afterlife Book

For those who wish to confront the fear of dying, Death and Afterlife is the scientifically objective place to start. Biochemical researcher Brian Innes has compiled a handsomely designed coffee table compendium of everything you ever wanted to know about death, and then some. From the philosophical to the religious, the biological to the mythological, the psychological to the legal, Innes covers it all. Topics include euthanasia, suicide, reincarnation, memorials, necromancy, and epitaphs, just to mention a few. Heavy doses of art and literature as man considers the subject throughout the ages act to engage and sober the reader. Hamlet ponders, "To die, to sleep. To sleep perchance to dream; aye, there's the rub"; Giovanni Boccaccio depicts the grimacing Black Death of the 14th century; and John Donne admonishes, "never send to know for whom the bell tolls. It tolls for thee". --P Randall CohanRead More
