Synopsis

Is there life beyond the grave? Is it reasonable to believe in the afterlife? If so, how should we act on those beliefs? Bestselling author Dinesh DSouza undertakes an unprecedented voyage of intellectual discovery to reveal the truth about life, death, and beyond. Unlike many books about the afterlife, Life after Death makes no appeal to religious faith, divine revelation, or sacred texts. Drawing on some of the most powerful theories and trends in physics, evolutionary biology, science, philosophy, and psychology, DSouza shows why the atheist critique of immortality is irrationaland draws the striking conclusion that it is reasonable to believe in life after death. He concludes by showing how life after death can give depth and significance to this life, a path to happiness, and reason for hope.

He cites experiential, scientific, philosophic an......more

Goodreads review by Hans on August 21, 2010

I was so skeptical about this book I almost didn't read it. I will admit out front that I have a bias against some religious books, especially Christian ones. The reason is that in the US the commercialization of Christianity has made me deeply suspicious of any book written by Christians about Chri......more
