'Why was I born the person I am?' 'If the person I am had never been born would I have been born as someone else?' 'What happens to me when I die?' 'What happens to the people I know when they die?' 'Have I lived before?' In this easy-to-read book, psychologist Dr Michael Heap takes the reader on a journey in search of answers to these and other profound questions about human existence. By means of a series of philosophical questions, logical puzzles, thought experiments and meditations, and with strict adherence to scientific knowledge, the author guides the reader to clear answers to these questions. Answers that have extraordinary consequences for how we understand our lives and the basis of our morality. This is not a journey for the lazy or faint-hearted; the conclusions may comfort you or terrify you or both. But it is a journey well worth taking
