Six Feet Over: Science Tackles the Afterlife

In this fascinating book, bestselling author Mary Roach travels the world and talks to dozens of people in order to better understand a fundamental (but ultimately unanswerable) question: what happens to us after we die? Is there some part of me that will live on or otherwise persist? Or will I just vanish? Combining what insights science can provide us with the speculations and wonderings of various believers and non-believers alike, in her inimitable style Roach produces an eminently readable volume that will have you seriously pondering what the universe has in store for you after you die.
