A Book with Eternal Significance!

Hans Kung is arguably the most thoughtful and influential Christian theologian of our time. In this work, Kung explores the mystery of life after death, using insights from the fields of medicine and science, history and archaeology, philosophy and theology. A master of apologetics, Kung examines all sides of the argument and then makes a reasonable case for those who believe in and hope for eternal life. And as always in his writings, Kung astutely demonstrates that belief in the hereafter is not just an academic speculation, but indeed has immense implications for how we live in the "here-and-now."
