Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Digital Heaven and the Copy Problem explores whether technology could one day offer a form of afterlife through digital preservation, simulation, or mind uploading. Dwayne Walter examines the deep human longing to resist death and asks whether a digital continuation would truly preserve the…self or merely create a convincing copy. The book argues that this "copy problem" is central: even if a digital version perfectly mirrors memory, personality, and voice, it may not preserve first-person consciousness. Walter also considers how such technologies could reshape grief, memory, identity, and human relationships, while raising major ethical concerns about commercialization, inequality, governance, and the possible creation of sentient digital beings. Rather than celebrating or rejecting technology outright, the book calls for moral clarity, intellectual honesty, and restraint. Its central message is that society must ask hard questions about truth, personhood, and responsibility before embracing comforting but potentially misleading visions of digital immortality. Dwayne Walter is a Canadian writer and polyglot whose work ranges across history, language, science, technology, and civilization. Fluent in Chinese, French, Russian, and Spanish in addition to his native English, and able to converse in Japanese, he brings an unusually broad civilizational and linguistic perspective to his writing. A longtime independent author, he has written on subjects as varied as modern life, human evolution, China, Russia, and the future of intelligence. In Digital Heaven and the Copy Problem, he turns to one of the most profound questions of the coming century: whether consciousness can be preserved, and what such a future would mean for identity, mortality, and the human soul.
