Пока человек жив, он мало задумывается над тем, ЧТО ожидает его, возможно, уже в следующую секунду: ведь сколько прекрасных строк оборвалось на полуслове и скольким добрым делам так и не суждено было исполниться лишь только потому, что люди в суете житейской всё самое лучшее и необходимое постоянно откладывали и продолжают откладывать «на потом», забывая о том, что в следующее мгновение этого «потом» у них уже может и не быть вовсе.

From ventilators to brain implants, medicine has been blurring what it means to die. In a lucid description of modern neuroscientific thinking, Zeleznikow-Johnston explains that death is not the loss of breath, but of personal identity – that the core of our identities is our minds, and that our minds are encoded in the structure of our brains. On this basis, he explores how recent discoveries now offer us all the chance of preserving our minds for future revival. Whether they discovered cures or fought for justice, we are grateful to those of our ancestors who helped craft a kinder world.
