Michael Hauskeller is Professor of Philosophy at the University of Liverpool, UK and the author of of Biotechnology and the Integrity of Life (2007), Better Humans? Understanding the Enhancement Project (2013) Sex and the Posthuman Condition (2014), Handbook of Posthumanism (2015) and Mythologies of Transhumanism (2016).
Drawing on ideas from some of the world's most intriguing thinkers, Hauskeller invites us on a philosophical journey, in which we consider different aspects of life and death. Bringing together exciting philosophers such as Wittgenstein and Nietzsche, and renowned literary figures such Tolstoy and Proust, the book offers a new set of perspectives on the time-honoured question of the meaning of life and death. * Havi Carel, Professor of Philosophy, University of Bristol, UK * Highly recommended. Hauskeller has made a wise selection of work by philosophers and fiction writers about the connection between death and meaning in life. The book as a whole represents many of the main ideas in this area of such deep existential interest. * John Martin Fischer, Distinguished Professor of Philosophy and University Professor, University of California, USA *
