Download or read book Self-Concern written by Raymond Martin and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 1998 with total page 187 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Raymond Martin's book is a major contribution to the philosophical literature on the nature of the self, personal identity, and survival. Its distinctive methodology is one that is phenomenologically descriptive rather than metaphysical and normative. This is the first book of analytic philosophy directly on the phenomenology of identity and survival. It aims to build bridges between analytic and phenomenological traditions and, thus, to open up a new field of investigation.
