This anthology of 16 chapters (see details below) is VOLUME 4 of
the DEATH AND ANTI-DEATH series by Ria University Press. Most of
the contributions consist of scholarship unique to this volume.
Includes index. Although published in honor of Simone de Beauvoir
(1908-1986) and Martin Heidegger (1889-1976), the chapters do NOT

chapters (by professional philosophers and other professional
scholars) ARE directed to issues related to death, life extension,
