Time, Identity and the Self: Essays on Metaphysics

von Brian Garrett

226 Seiten, Taschenbuch

Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

This volume contains twenty-four essays by the British/Australian analytic metaphysician, Brian Garrett. These essays are followed by four short dialogues that emphasize and summarize some of the main points of the essays and discuss new perspectives that have emerged since their original publication.

The volume covers topics on the metaphysics of time, the nature of identity, and the nature and importance of persons and human beings. The chapters constitute the fruits of almost four decades of philosophical research, from Brian’s two award-winning essays, published in 
Analysis
 in 1983 and 
The Philosophical Quarterly
 in 1992, to his latest ideas about Fatalism and the Grandfather Paradox.


This book will be of interest to students and professional philosophers in the field of analytic philosophy.
