Human Personality and Its Survival of Bodily Death

F. W. H. Myers

Publisher: DigiCat

Summary

In "Human Personality and Its Survival of Bodily Death," F. W. H. Myers presents a pioneering exploration of the relationship between consciousness, personality, and the potential for survival after death. Drawing on extensive research in psychical phenomena, Myers employs an analytical literary style that blends philosophical inquiry with empirical investigation. The work situates itself within the broader context of late Victorian spiritualism, engaging with contemporary debates on the nature of the self and the possibility of an afterlife, while integrating case studies and experimental observations that challenge the materialist paradigm of the time. F. W. H. Myers was a prominent figure in the Society for Psychical Research and a classicist by training, which imbued his writing with a nuanced understanding of both ancient and modern philosophical thought. His fascination with the mysteries of human consciousness likely stemmed from personal experiences and his scholarly pursuits, positioning him as a key advocate for the scientific study of the paranormal. Myers' dedication to exploring the "supernormal" aspects of human existence makes this text a reflective inquiry into the nature of reality itself. This seminal work is highly recommended for readers interested in the intersections of psychology, spirituality, and philosophy. Its rigorous analysis and open-minded exploration provide a thought-provoking contribution to ongoing discussions about the nature of human existence and the afterlife. Myers's eloquent prose invites not just scholarly engagement, but also personal reflection on the profound mysteries of consciousness that continue to elude definitive understanding.

For ALL the People - Redeeming...

Michael Slaby, Deval Patrick

"Slaby is the Yuval Noah Harari of media. He pointedly outlines the fracture of our culture and democracy while providing hopeful next steps for how we can redesign our systems for a more civically-minded world."

—Megan Kiefer, author of The Third Dimension of Literacy
A leader in digital communication and grassroots political campaigns explains how the internet and modern media have undermined America and how we can reclaim our voices for the good of civic life.
The creators of the internet promised us jetpacks: better experiences, more choices, and deeper relationships.
Built on a diversity of voices, our online freedom was supposed to spark a democratic transformation. But our platforms don't work for us—we're the inventory and our outrage fuels a tech revolution optimized for profit, not civic life.
As one of the top digital strategists for Barack Obama's two presidential campaigns, Michael Slaby saw the beginning of a new kind of national division. What he witnessed would spawn the Tea Party movement, upset the 2016 election, and accelerate the polarization of American civic life.
Slaby presents the four core areas which can be reclaimed to work better for all of us: platforms, government institutions, corporations, and even the users ourselves. Optimistic, future-focused, and deeply passionate, For ALL the People breaks down how we got here, and how we, the users, can work toward a better democracy through tech.
