Good Press, 2019

In "Is Life Worth Living Without Immortality?", M. M. Mangasarian explores the profound philosophical inquiry surrounding existence and the elusive concept of immortality. Through a blend of rigorous argumentation and poignant reflection, Mangasarian employs a style that combines philosophical rigor with accessible prose, inviting readers into a nuanced dialogue on the significance of life when faced with mortality. Set against the backdrop of early 20th-century philosophical debates, the text challenges established notions of purpose and meaning, prompting a reevaluation of how these themes intersect with the desire for eternal existence. M. M. Mangasarian, a prominent figure in the early secular humanist movement, brings a wealth of intellectual rigor and personal conviction to this work. His insights are rooted in his extensive background in philosophy and ethics, shaped by his experiences as an advocate for rational thought and skepticism towards traditional dogmas. This context enriches the text, as Mangasarian not only critiques prevailing religious sentiments but also offers alternative pathways to understanding life'Äôs value beyond the confines of immortality. This seminal work is highly recommended for readers seeking a deep reflection on existential questions that resonate across time and space. Mangasarian'Äôs arguments compel us to grapple with our beliefs about life and death, urging a reconsideration of how meaning is constructed in a finite existence. Whether you are a philosopher, a student of morality, or simply curious about the human condition, this book is an essential addition to your intellectual exploration.
