Book Synopsis
Prompted by tragedy - a loved one's descent into dementia - Warren Bourgeois explored Western philosophical ideas to discover what constitutes a “person”. The first edition of Persons - What Philosophers Say About You was the result of his search. This new second edition focuses on making this material easily available and accessible to students.

Trade Review
"Bourgeois is a mainstream analytical philosopher ... but his survey of the classical theories is highly comprehensive. He is particularly effective in relating metaphysical issues to ethical and social ones." -- Jay Newman -- Canadian Book Review Annual, 2006
