Persistence
In The Human Animal: Personal Identity Without Psychology. New York, US: Oxford University Press. pp. 22-41 (1997)
Abstract
This chapter is about how to state the question of personal identity over time. The question is often put in a way that assumes a person cannot start out or end up as a nonperson. This prejudges an important metaphysical question, and rules out the Biological Approach. The chapter then turns to the language of identity over time in general.Author's Profile
