No Self to be Found

Více o knize

Exploring the concept of personal identity, the book critiques traditional accounts that stem from flawed assumptions, highlighting David Hume's assertion that the self is a fiction. It presents a fresh interpretation of Hume's no-self theory, advocating for an eliminative perspective rather than a reductive one. By incorporating phenomenology, Buddhist critiques, and the notion of a constructed self-image, it delves into the fundamental question of whether personal identity truly exists, challenging readers to reconsider their understanding of self.
