“ I don’t think that you, or anyone you love, has to die at all… We can pause ageing indefinitely.”We are delighted to be partnering with Edinburgh Philosophy Events as we welcome renowned neuroscientist Dr Ariel Zeleznikow-Johnston to the shop on Wednesday 27 th November at 7pm to discuss his eloquent and courageous excursion into brain preservation, The Furture Loves You: How and Why We Should Abolish Death , with Professor Michael Cholbi.
As we near our deaths, 70% of us would choose more time if given the option. That drive to live is all the more true for those with fatal diseases whose life saving treatment is in sight but in the future. Why should we die if we could be revived and cured at a later date? Must we forever remain constrained by the evolutionary accident of our 80-year life expectancy?
The Future Loves You offers the first clear evaluation of the viability of abolishing death. While the concept might seem far-fetched, history has shown that dismissing new ideas can lead to grave mistakes. Zeleznikow-Johnston challenges us to take control of our own deaths.
