i HE TITLE OF this editorial is the title o f a book published by Doubleday & Co. in June o f this year, carrying the sub title, "Successful Preservation o f Human Body Feasible in 1964 .” Unfortunately this editorial must go to the printer before the pub lication date o f the book. But from advance promotional litera ture the book promises to be one o f the most widely discussed books o f the year. A scientist friend o f the author states, in the preface, “ It is important to realize that Mr. Ettinger (the author o f the book) is, in the strictest biological section o f the book, carrying to its logical conclusion an argument for which he has unimpeachable premises. He realizes the job cannot be done over night. What he is telling us is that we must begin. The job will be done some day and for every day that we put it off, untold thou sands are going to an unnecessary grave.” According to news re leases, the book, "The Prospect o f Immortality” begins with the sober explanation o f the scientific probabilities.

Freezing damage will be overcome in the near future, according to these scientists, and medical science will develop cures for most fatal diseases including old age. An individual dying o f kidney failure may elect to enter frozen 'sleep’ and be revived in later years when repair o f the kidneys is as simple as an appendectomy is today.” The second part o f the book deals mainly with the religious, legal and economic problems which are raised by the theme o f the book. Among the questions the author endeavors to answer are: What about the population growth? What happens to the soul? What about wills, property and insurance? Who decides whom to freeze? And who decides whom and when to thaw? How and where will the bodies be filed? What about a widow who is re married and is revived to confront two husbands? Contemplation upon the theme o f the book would lead one to a number o f most ludicrous conclusions and we would be inclined to consider the
