Bag om Problems of the Self

""Problems Of The Self: An Essay"" is a philosophical work written by John Laird and originally published in 1917. The book delves into the concept of the self and the various problems that arise when one tries to understand and define it. Laird explores questions such as: What is the self? How does it relate to the body and the mind? Is it a stable entity or does it change over time? The book is divided into three parts. The first part provides an overview of various philosophical theories of the self, including those of Descartes, Locke, and Hume. The second part delves into the problems of the self, such as the problem of personal identity and the problem of free will. The third and final part of the book offers Laird's own perspective on the self, which he refers to as the ""self as process."" Throughout the book, Laird uses clear and accessible language to explain complex philosophical concepts. ""Problems Of The Self: An Essay"" is a thought-provoking work that invites readers to contemplate the nature of the self and its place in the world.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
