A neuroscientist and surgeon makes an argument for the existence of a spiritual human soul in this eye-opening book.

Many scientists and doctors believe that there is no such thing as the soul. That there is no part of us that persists beyond death. We are not spiritual in any respect. We are made up of cells and tissue, and completely controlled by a material organ in our heads: the brain. In this groundbreaking book, Dr. Michael Egnor makes the case—based on 40 years of practice and over 7,000 brain surgeries—that science has gotten it all wrong.

The human brain is incredible, mysterious, and powerful. But it’s not what makes us who we are. The soul does that. Drawing on the most important research studies in neuroscience, Dr. Egnor presents evidence that the brain alone does not explain the mind. He explores, using modern neuroscience and his vast surgical experience, how inside every damaged brain there is a thinking, feeling person with a spiritual soul that transcends the brain, using fascinating case studies to prove his claim.

Engaging, thought-provoking, and groundbreaking, The Immortal Mind shows here that some aspect of who we are is spiritual and immortal, transcending the physical body.

I have read widely in consciousness studies over the past 40 years and put this book in the top echelon of books dealing with this contentious topic. Like Egnor, I was a scientific materialist until I was confronted with evidence pointing to the greater reality in which, as Carl Jung said, we are spiritual beings having a physical existence. Egnor had a direct personal spiritual awakening. Mine was mediated through patients I had resuscitated in the emergency department sharing their stories of traveling out of body to another, wondrous world. I will buy hard copies of this book to give to my college-age granddaughters so that they don't waste precious years wandering in an agnostic miasma before seeing the light.

Five stars! An absolute must-read!

I think the good doctor needs to examine the young Earth Creationism writing.
I recommend Scientific Creationism.

great information

This was a good overall argument for an immortal mind and soul. If you come to this book expecting it to be materialist science, “sanitized” of religious ideas, and deeply technical into neurology, you will be unhappy. But if you want a multifaceted argument for what the argument embraces, it does a very good job at communicating to laymen and people with some education. And it has a message and a purpose to change its audience, so don’t be expecting complete neutrality. I agree with the author’s views, so I am not offended. If you are from the Academy, you might be offended by some things, but that doesn’t make them wrong. Good luck.

Don’t expect a total science textbook.

Shouldn’t be missed. Its importance can’t be overstated. Hope you enjoy as much as I did.

Enlightening

I’m science minded and open to explore what might be outside of the current science can prove or define. This book has more claims by the author than sound arguments. If you already believe in the claims then it’d be great. But not very convincing for readers who are still on fence.

Fascinating topic, weak argument
