The Nature Of The Self: A Functional Interpretation (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9781258057732)

""The Nature of the Self: A Functional Interpretation"" is a philosophical book written by Risieri Frondizi. In this book, Frondizi explores the concept of the self and its relationship to human consciousness. He argues that the self is not a fixed entity but rather a dynamic process that is constantly evolving and changing. Frondizi takes a functionalist approach to understanding the self, which means that he believes that the self is best understood in terms of its functions and activities rather than its underlying structure.Frondizi draws on a wide range of philosophical and scientific sources to support his argument, including the work of William James, John Dewey, and Jean Piaget. He also discusses the role of culture and society in shaping our understanding of the self, and how different cultures have different conceptions of what it means to be a self.Overall, ""The Nature of the Self"" is a thought-provoking and insightful book that challenges traditional views of the self and offers a new perspective on this fundamental concept. It will be of interest to anyone interested in philosophy, psychology, or the nature of human consciousness.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
