This book uses philosophy, psychology, and autobiography in an
innovative exploration of self and self-knowledge. It argues that
our sense of who we are is an ever-changing response to the world
of interpersonal experience, an essential project that is always
subject to revision and change. It explores self-knowledge through
linked topics. What characteristics make an individual identifiable
and unique, and how are they experienced introspectively? What
insight can be gained through the metaphors of acting and roles?
How does fantasy plays a crucial part in self-definition and
self-exploration? How do trust and fear define our perception of
others and what is their contribution to our sense of self? The
second half of the book uses the friendship of the authors, a
philosopher and a psychologist, to investigate how one's ability to
navigate the world, along with one's self-knowledge, changes
through mutual care, respect, and complementarity-and through an
explicit dialogic focus on self and self-understanding.
