Must there be an answer? Importance of personal identity. Appendices. Index. "One of the most discussed of current topics in philosophy of mind is the problem of personal identitythe problem of what, if any thing, makes a later person the same person as an earlier person. The book is a rare attempt to analyse the problem in its various aspects and develop a theory by way of answering the questions involved. It divides itself into three parts dealings with (1) the nature and source of the problem; (2) how it has been approached by various philosophers, traditional and contemporary; and (3) what a proper analysis of it will amount to. The theory that eventually issues out of this analysis is that bodily continuity is the primary criterion of personal identity and the claim of memory as the sole, or even primary, criterion is definitively disallowed. The ideas of disembodied existence and survival, which imply and rest upon the primacy of the memory criterion, are shown to be what they are, i.e., intelligible only in a secondary sense. Of special interest to philosophers is the finding that the problem at issue is a problem of criterion and not of defining personal identity and also an interesting and original trichotomy between definition, criterion and necessary condition."

Soft cover. Zustand: New. To earn his living, Maguni desperately hopes for passengers to choose his old bullock cart over a bus. A gnarled sahada tree in a family's courtyard bears witness to a series of deaths. A young woman sold into prostitution faces the hypocrisies of a patriarchal world. An India almost unknown to us floods the pages of this significant series of short stories sourced from the late nineteenth to the mid-twentieth centuries. Ringing with the music of India's regional languages, and peppered with wit and social commentary, these stories are windows to the past and its people-the everyday struggles and joys; the ties of friendship and faith; the politics of love and rejection; the intricacies of betrayal and envy; and the conflicts of class and caste-while continuing to be relevant to our present, puncturing the boundaries of time and space. How much has Indian society changed? How much of it has not.…

Hardcover. Zustand: New. Contents: Foreword/P.K. Mohapatra. Preface. Introduction. 1. Nature and Concept of Action. 2. Agency. 3. Action and Free Will. 4. Action, Freedom and Responsibility. 5. Summary and Conclusion. Bibliography. Index. This book, a work on human doing, analyses and applies three central aspects of human life Action, Freedom and Responsibility in the wide spectrum of the Philosophy of Mind. Reflections on these issues and their interconnections have a significant effect on the Philosophy of Value and application of ethical theories in practical life. This book even reconstructs the conceptual connection between action and freedom, on the one hand, and that between freedom and responsibility, on the other. It also puts the concepts of freedom and determinism to critical test and reinterprets them from different angles and perspectives. The conventional doctrine of karma, based on the teachings of the Bhagavadgata, is relieved from its usual deterministic presentation and a logically reasonable explanation is offered. Human actions and human agency are central concepts in the philosophy of mind and action. Free will and responsibility constitute the bedrock of the moral life of the human agents and the book pinpoints that freedom is meant to undertake the goal-oriented actions. It is, therefore, focused on the enquiry into the various aspects of philosophy of mind, as well as the philosophy of value.…
