Shermer M. "Heavens on Earth: The Scientific Search for the Afterlife, Immortality, and Utopia"

This is a bold attempt to cover in a concise form a huge historical and psychological material - from the dream of immortality, peculiar to people since the birth of civilization, to the purposeful solution of such problems of modern medicine and science as the reversibility of aging processes and increasing life expectancy. The author analyzes the ideas about the afterlife expressed in the Abrahamic world religions, gives views of representatives of various fields of science - from particle physics to molecular biology - on the mysteries of aging and the possibility of victory over death, and also considers utopian theories of building a "Paradise on earth".
