I'd also recommend Mark Johnston's work on the topic. Human Beings (https://www.pdcnet.org/pdc/bvdb.nsf/purchase?openform&fp=jph... - behind a paywall, unfortunately) is a wonderful essay. And his book Surviving Death is a good example of creative contemporary philosophy that's actually fun to read.
