Fosdick draws on various religious and philosophical traditions to explore the concept of immortality, including the Christian belief in eternal life, the Hindu concept of reincarnation, and the Stoic idea of living on through one's legacy. He also addresses common objections to the belief in an afterlife, such as the problem of evil and the lack of empirical evidence.The second part of the book focuses on the secret of victorious living.
