Summary
What has happened to get people so excited about the prospect of eternal life? And if they are right, what would it mean for us as human beings? If death became negotiable, would we still fall in love or have children? This work tackles these and other myriad questions, and sheds light on why we are the way we are. It offers a look at immortality.
