{"product_id":"the-essence-of-the-self-geoffrey-madell-9781138823945","title":"The Essence of the Self: In Defense of the Simple View of Personal Identity","description":"\u003cp\u003eIn this volume, Geoffrey Madell develops a revised account of the self, making a compelling case for why the \"simple\" or \"anti-criterial\" view of personal identity warrants a robust defense. Madell critiques recent discussions of the self for focusing on features which are common to all selves, and which therefore fail to capture the uniqueness of each self. Engaging with contemporary positions on the first person, embodiment, psychological continuity, and other ongoing arguments, Madell's view that the nature of the self is substantively different from that of objects in the world will generate significant discussion and debate among philosophers of mind. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Geoffrey Madell\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1138823945\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781138823945\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Routledge\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/16\/2014\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 144\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.84lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.44d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eChoice\u003c\/i\u003e 10\/01\/2015","brand":"Geoffrey Madell","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":47202791293183,"sku":"9781138823945","price":210.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_b2d3b3c2-493a-4b3a-af7f-195acae68737.jpg?v=1756833421","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-essence-of-the-self-geoffrey-madell-9781138823945","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
