Volume 22 (=266 pages) is in honor of Saul Kent (First Life Cycle 1939-2023). Please note that a number of the chapter contributions mention him, and a number do not. The chapters (by professional philosophers and other scholars and professionals) are directed to issues related to death, life extension, and anti-death, broadly construed. The contributions consist of relevant reprints as well as scholarship unique to this volume. As was the case with all previous volumes in the Death And Anti-Death Series By Ria University Press, the anthology includes an Abstracts section that serves as an extended table of contents.

Volume 22 includes fourteen chapters, as follows: ------CHAPTER ONE: Pioneering Longevity: A Tribute To Friendship, Vision, And The Unfolding Future Of Life Extension (by David Barzilai) Pages 25-36.------CHAPTER TWO: Saul Kent: My Interactions With The Cryonicist (by Ben Best) Pages 37-42.------CHAPTER THREE: Saul Kent's Last Journey (by Aschwin de Wolf) Pages 43-46.------CHAPTER FOUR: Cryogenic Eschatology: The Cosmological Trajectory Of Life And Death (by J. N. Nielsen) Pages 47-72.------CHAPTER FIVE: Deliverance Transhumanism: A Loving Life Stance For A Future By Design (by R. Michael Perry) Pages 73-94.------CHAPTER SIX: Saul Kent: Some Recollections And Reflections (by R. Michael Perry) Pages 95-104.------CHAPTER SEVEN: Conversations With Saul Kent (by Charles Platt) Pages 105-124.------CHAPTER EIGHT: Saul Kent's Grand Obsession: A Personal Memoir (by Charles Platt) Pages 125-142.------CHAPTER NINE: Cryonic Healthspan Extension Via Voluntary Dehydration For Legal Death (by Charles Tandy) Pages 143-150.------CHAPTER TEN: Cryonics Advance Directive For Health Care (State Of Michigan Template) (by Charles Tandy) Pages 151-170.------CHAPTER ELEVEN: Retroactive Continuity And Universal Resurrection: Philosophical And Technological Pathways (by Charles Tandy, editor; ChatGPT 4o mini, author) Pages 171-246.------CHAPTER TWELVE: Shall The Future Repair The Past? Universal Scientific Resurrection Of The Dead (by Charles Tandy) Pages 247-254.------CHAPTER THIRTEEN: Saul Kent And The Science Of Cryopreservation (by Brian Wowk) Pages 255-258.------CHAPTER FOURTEEN: The Basketball Game: A Tribute To Saul Kent (by Jim Yount) Pages 259-266.
