Is there life after death? This most universal of questions has puzzled and challenged every generation of men and women. If there is eternal life how do we start to comprehend this reality in the midst of a culture that has be dominated by rationalism and materialistic mind-set and in which our present life is continually improving, progressing to higher standards and better quality? Hans Kung discusses the medical, philosophical, and theological problems that arise from these age-old questions, and provides a thought-provoking analysis of the modern dilemma of the rethinking of ancient problems.
