Description
Book SynopsisTrade Review"A pithy guide to eternal questions, by a specialist in ethics and moral psychology."
---Sarah Lyall, New York Times Book Review"The text is accompanied by . . . clever and charming illustrations. . . . And throughout, Velleman offers a resolutely first-person meditation that, in the spirit of Descartes, eschews technical jargon and scholarly references."
---Emrys Westacott, Philosophers' Magazine"Each reader will find a different mapping onto their own experience, but it is a stimulating journey." * Paradigm Explorer *
"By reading [
On Being Me] we should let its very personal prose nourish our understanding of the world and of ourselves. . . .
On Being Me introduces many topics of academic philosophy – the self, the nature of time, free-will and responsibility – without getting lost in professional discussion and without losing sight of the importance of those themes in our daily life."
---Daniel Peixoto Murata, The Journal of Value Inquiry
