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.
