We normally take it for granted that other people will live on after we ourselves have died. Even if we do not believe in a personal afterlife in which we survive our own deaths, we assume that there will be a ",collective afterlife", in which humanity survives long after we are gone. Samuel Scheffler maintains that this assumption plays a surprising -- indeed astonishing -- role in our lives.
