Publisher Note

In 1962, Robert Ettinger published The Prospect of Immortality, a book that gave birth to the idea of ‘cryonics’ – the process of freezing a human body after death in the hope that scientific advances might one day restore life. This photo book, by Murray Ballard, is the result of a nine-year photographic investigation into the practice Ettinger inspired.
