The Philosophy of Death Reader presents a collection of classic
readings from across the centuries and the continents. Organised
around central metaphysical questions from whether soul is immortal
to what can experience death, it brings together pivotal readings
from ancient, modern and contemporary philosophers. The twenty-four
readings require no background in philosophy. Featuring writings
from Vedanta, the ancient Greeks, the Buddhist tradition, Christian
eschatology, and recent analytic philosophy, they flow thematically
and cover: - Key metaphysical topics including immortality, rebirth
and the after - Scientific perspectives on biology and the brain -
Axiological questions surrounding old age, the soul and how to live
with mortality Accompanied throughout by editor's notes,
introductory material, and discussion questions, this
cross-cultural reader draws themes together, encourages further
study and introduces a broad range of philosophical thinking about
death.
