Sum
at Once Funny, Wistful And Unsettling, Sum Is A Dazzling Exploration Of Unexpected Afterlives—each Presented As A Vignette That Offers A Stunning Lens Through Which To See Ourselves In The Here And Now. In One Afterlife, You May Find That God Is The Size Of A Microbe And Unaware Of Your Existence. In Another Version, You Work As A Background Character In Other People’s Dreams. Or You May Find That God Is A Married Couple, Or That The Universe Is Running Backward, Or That You Are Forced To Live Out Your Afterlife With Annoying Versions Of Who You Could Have Been. With A Probing Imagination And Deep Understanding Of The Human Condition, Acclaimed Neuroscientist David Eagleman Offers Wonderfully Imagined Tales That Shine A Brilliant Light On The Here And Now.
