Beskrivelse af Immortality and the Modern Mind
Immortality and the Modern Mind is a philosophical book written by Kirsopp Lake. The book explores the concept of immortality in the context of modern society and the challenges it poses to the human mind. The author delves into the history of immortality and its various interpretations in different cultures and religions. He also examines the scientific and technological advancements that have made the possibility of immortality a reality. The book raises thought-provoking questions about the ethical and moral implications of immortality and the impact it would have on society. The author argues that immortality is not just a physical state but also a mental one, and that the pursuit of immortality requires a shift in the way we think about life and death. Overall, Immortality and the Modern Mind is a compelling read that challenges readers to reconsider their beliefs about the meaning of life and the human condition.1922. This volume represents the Ingersoll Lecture of 1922. The author does not propose to discuss the details of the questionnaire sent out as an attempt to collect information as to the general attitude of educated persons towards the belief in immortality, or the answers given to it. Lake desires merely to set forth the reasons which lead so many reluctantly to decline a prospect dear to our forefathers and attractive to ourselves, and secondly to describe a new attitude towards life which seems to be taking its place.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
