This book blew me away. As I read it, I shared many of the stories with my wife. Why? While I have studied the philosophy of mind since graduate school in the early 2000s, Dr. Egnor makes some fresh insights because of his training and experience as a neurosurgeon. If you want to know if there’s good evidence for the existence of the soul, The Immortal Mind book is a must-read.

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.
