Media Reviews
John Martin Fischer and Benjamin Mitchell-Yellin's book is the gold standard for philosophical work aimed at a popular audience. Fischer and Mitchell-Yellin make nuanced, philosophically interesting arguments about a topic largely unexplored by academic philosophers and manage to do so in a way that is accessible to any intellectually curious reader. * Travis Timmerman, The Philosophical Quarterly *
provides a brief yet fascinating analysis of a much discussed, yet little understood area of medical science * Suzi Higton, The Expository Times *
Basing their definition of the findings of the Immortality Project (2012-15) they argue their case convincingly, but they are careful not to belittle or ridicule the effects which such experiences can have. * Steve Craggs, Northern Echo *
