	Yes No	David Eagleman on his in'tl besteller SUM, science, the afterlife and possibilism David Eagleman, Vintage Books "Eagleman is a true original. Read Sum and be amazed. Reread it and be reamazed." - Time Magazine ... READ MORE "Eagleman is a true original. Read Sum and be amazed. Reread it and be reamazed." - Time Magazine Sum is a work of literary fiction composed of forty mutually exclusive stories. Each story offers a different reason for our existence and the meaning of life and death. These are not serious proposals; they’re satirical and thought provoking lenses through which to see our lives at new angles. Can you give us some examples? In different stories, God is a married couple, God is a committee, God is a species of dimwitted creatures, or God is the size of a bacterium. In other stories there is no God at all and people in the afterlife battle over stories of His non-existence. In other stories we are mobile rovers built by planetary cartographers, or we are ten-dimensional creatures taking a vacation in three-dimensional bodies, or our life runs backwards after the expansion of the universe reverses and you get to see all the details you mis-remembered.
