The problems of the nature of the self and the relationship between self and body are of immense philosophical interest. In this book Harold Noonan presents analyses of the major historical theories of personal identity, looks at the main issues and arguments which are the subject of current debate, and presents new interpretations of them. For the historical component Noonan focuses particularly on the work of Locke, Leibniz, Butler, Reid and Hume, emphasizing the importance for them of the question of whether personal identity is to be equated with identity of substance. He also makes a statement of what the problem of personal identity is and its place in the context of more general puzzles about identity. This book should be of interest to students and teachers of philosophy of mind.
