Science Meets Faith : The Survival Of Consciousness

What happens to us when we die, when the curtain drops on the final scene of this earthly drama we call life. In Western culture, the very concept of consciousness surviving physical death would, to conventional science, be absurd; the idea of another dimension, incorporeal, transcendent, consisting of pure energy, inhabited by spiritual entities, likewise, equally preposterous. The author applies his philosophical and analytic skills to examine historic as well as modern evidence for the hypotheses that consciousness exists outside the normal parameters of the brain, and, furthermore, survives the death of the physical body. A belief held by the ancient Greek philosophers, the rishes in the ancient Hindu scriptures, the Vendanta, and in the teachings of Buddhism. In more modern times by such eminent scientists as Nobel prize-winning neurophysiologist, Sir John Eccles, Dr Wilder Penfold, distinguished neurosurgeon, William James, father of modern psychology, David Bohn, eminent quantum physicist, (student of Einstein) and many others in the scientific community. In this book Jonathan Strong provides some intriguing if provocative answers to this age-old question. It will make you re-think everything you thought you knew, or believed, about death, and what comes after; whatever your religious or cultural pre-conceived ideas may be.
