This book provides a new argument for the tensed theory of time and
emergentism about the self. This argument derives in part from
theories which establish our nature as rational and emotional
beings whose behavior is responsive to reasons which are facts. It
is argued that there must be reasons, hence facts, that can only be
captured by tensed and/or first-personal language if our behavior
is to be by and large rational and appropriate. This establishes
the tensed theory of time and emergentism or dualism about the
self, given the physical body can plausibly be fully described
non-first-personally. In the course of this discussion the book
also clarifies and defends a notion of fact and responds to
McTaggart's paradox and Wittgenstein's private language argument.
