Omschrijving

The Man Who Outlived Himself is a science fiction novel written by Albion Winegar Tourgee and published in 1898. The story follows the life of a brilliant scientist named Professor John Gaylord who discovers a way to transfer his consciousness into a younger, healthier body. He successfully undergoes the procedure and begins a new life as a man in his 30s. As he adjusts to his new life, he realizes that he has left behind his old life, including his wife and children. He struggles with the ethical implications of his decision and the consequences of his actions. He also faces challenges as he tries to keep his true identity a secret from those around him. As the story progresses, Gaylord realizes that his new body is not immune to the effects of aging and he must undergo the procedure again. However, this time things go wrong and he finds himself trapped in a state of limbo between his old and new bodies. The novel explores themes of identity, mortality, and the consequences of playing god. It is a thought-provoking and engaging read that still resonates with readers today.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
