Migene Gonzalez-Wippler (c.1950-) is a Puerto Rican cultural anthropologist turned new-age author noted for her 1997 book
What Happens After Death, in which she attempts to build a theory of
death on the first law of thermodynamics. The following is her theory introduction: [1]
“We want to establish a theory about what happens after we die. In order to do this, we must first provide a foundation for this theory, and this foundation is the first law of thermodynamics. This law states that energy can neither be created nor destroyed.”
On this footing, according to book reviews, Gonzalez-Wippler builds the first few chapters in the theme of a clear concise scientific look at the occult, but then digresses off on a tangent toward the end of the book. In terms of
God-like theories, Gonzalez-Wippler reasons that there is enough scientific evidence to prove the existence of a creative intelligence at
work in the
universe. [2] In her 1987 book
Kabbalah for the Modern World, she uses thermodynamics and
entropy to make a case for the existence of a creative force at work in the universe. [3]
EducationGonzalez-Wippler has a degree in
psychology from the University of Puerto Rico and a degree in anthropology from Colombia University. She has worked as a
science editor for the Interscience Division of John Wiley, the American Institute of Physics, and the American Museum of Natural History, and as an English editor for the United Nations in Vienna. [4]
