Summary

"Human Personality and Its Survival of Bodily Death" by F. W. H. Myers is a late 19th-century scientific exploration challenging the status quo by applying scientific rigor to the age-old question of whether a person's unique self lives on after death. The book highlights mankind’s failure to apply modern scientific inquiry, and pushes for the need to explore the soul. Traditional beliefs have created superstitions and kept scientific exploration from understanding human concepts like dreams, consciousness, and more. By investigating things such as dreams, hypnosis, and psychic experiences, Myers opens a path to understanding if consciousness and the self continues after one dies.
