Opis

Raymond Martin's book is a major contribution to the philosophical literature on the nature of the self, personal identity, and survival. Its distinctive methodology is one that is phenomenologically descriptive rather than metaphysical and normative. This is the first book of analytic philosophy directly on the phenomenology of identity and survival. It aims to build bridges between analytic and phenomenological traditions and, thus, to open up a new field of investigation.

Recenzje

"[Martin's] phenomenological investigation is extremely lucid and compelling, suggestive of new and fruitful ways in which philosophers can approach questions about survival and what matters." D.L.J., Ethics
