This book provides a fresh look at one of the most enduring absorbing and universal questions
human beings face: What happens to us after we die? In secular thought the standard answer is
simple: we disappear into oblivion. David Harmon takes us in a different direction by making
the case that a nonconscious portion of our personality survives death-literally not
figuratively-and explains how this kind of naturalistic afterlife can be emotionally relevant
to us while we are still living. Combining insights from the arts history philosophy and
science a compelling argument takes shape for an afterlife without God.
