It delves into early human history, revealing how our ancestors developed stories and beliefs to explain the world around them.

Through the lens of psychoanalysis, the book illuminates the unconscious desires, fears, and conflicts that shape these myths, showcasing their profound psychological and cultural significance.

Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book offers a historical overview of humanity's belief in the concept of life after death. The author argues that the belief in immortality has taken various forms, from the early idea of plasmic immortality in protozoa to the modern view that questions the notion of personal consciousness persisting beyond the cessation of bodily functions. Along the way, the book explores the ways in which this belief has manifested in human culture, including its influence on art, philosophy, and religion. Transcending its historical scope, the book finds that the search for evidence of immortality is a testament to humanity's existential need to make sense of its place in the universe.
