Publisher's Synopsis

When does life end and death begin? Is it possible, they are the same? Is death a state of nothingness or, as theorized by Philosopher Plato in the year 360 B.C., a state of sleep whereby the person experiences the consciousness of others as dreams? Plato believed a person's conscious was based on the prior conscious of others. Consciousness was an act of nature; a plan whereby one person passed their consciousness to another. Plato's pupil, Aristotle, believed the combined conscious was passed by the male parent, at conception, and the female parent passed her combined conscious prior to birth. It is possible, that within each of us, we hold the consciousness of our relatives and at our death; we could experience the combined conscious as a series of dreams. This experience is called Plato's Dream. Gregor Mendel partially proved Plato's and Aristotle's theories, in the year 1865, with his discovery of genetic inheritance. The discovery of DNA, in the year 1953, proved Mendel's theories. No one has proved or disproved Plato's theory, yet! Based on the consciousness theories of Plato and Aristotle and the genetic research of Gregor Mendel, Plato's Dream takes the reader on an intellectually stimulating and fascinating journey. A journey where life and death mix and eternity is only a single night.
