East meets West in this fascinating exploration of conceptions of
personal identity in Indian philosophy and modern Euro-American
psychology. Author Anand Paranjpe considers these two distinct
traditions with regard to historical, disciplinary, and cultural
`gaps' in the study of the self, and in the context of such
theoretical perspectives as univocalism, relativism, and pluralism.
The text includes a comparison of ideas on self as represented by
two eminent thinkers-Erik H. Erikson for the Western view, and
Advaita Vedanta for the Indian.
