This volume presents a theory of persons: their nature, their values, and their consciousness. The author begins by proposing a new theory of personal identity over time. Next, he defends the importance of personal identity against recent sceptical attack. And finally, he explores the nature of self-consciousness by examining the pronoun "I" and the various grounds of what our "I" judgements mean. Brian Garrett places recent discussions of personal identity in a broader context, and links the question of the understanding of persons with other central issues in philosophy, notably the problem of self-consciousness and ethical questions relating to our nature as persons.
