Is there an afterlife? Does human personality survive bodily death? Scientific research and a colossal amount of compelling empirical evidence, gathered for over 150 years by some of the finest minds on the planet, seem to indicate that Clint Eastwood's 2011 movie Hereafter actually got it right. Consciousness indeed appears to exist independently of a functioning brain, and to extend well beyond the transition we call death. Written by a medical doctor, university lecturer and member of the Society for Psychical Research, 21 Days into the Afterlife makes the case for the survival hypothesis in a series of well-researched chapters, each one covering a different field of investigation.
