Reviews
"A brief review cannot do justice to all the invariably subtle, sophisticated, and fascinating arguments contained in this very fine book... Schechtman's writing style is exceptionally clear, analytic, and yet, as we have all come to appreciate in her prose, tender. Staying Alive is a seminal work, enhancing the debate on personhood and personal identity in an important way. It is highly recommended to experts and students alike, even to those who are not constantly wondering what it takes to stay alive." --Marya SchechtmanPhilosophical Quarterly, How at this late date in the discussion within contemporary analytic philosophy of personhood and personal identity can one make a significant new contribution to our understanding of both? . . . In this valuable addition to the literature . . . Marya Schechtman may have found a way. It is by moving the analytic debate in a more empirical direction. This is by no means all she does in this important new book., "A brief review cannot do justice to all the invariably subtle, sophisticated, and fascinating arguments contained in this very fine book...

Synopsis
Judgments of personal identity stand at the heart of our daily transactions. Family life, friendships, institutions of justice, and systems of compensation all rely on our ability to reidentify people. It is not as obvious as it might at first appear just how to express this relation between facts about personal identity and practical interests in a philosophical account of personal identity. A natural thought is that whatever relation is proposed as the one which constitutes the sameness of a person must be important to us in just the way identity is. This simple understanding of the connection between personal identity and practical concerns has serious difficulties, however. One is that the relations that underlie our practical judgments do not seem suited to providing a metaphysical account of the basic, literal continuation of an entity. Another is that the practical interests we associate with identity are many and varied and it seems impossible that a single relation could simultaneously capture what is necessary and sufficient for all of them. Staying Alive offers a new way of thinking about the relation between personal identity and practical interests which allows us to overcome these difficulties and to offer a view in which the most basic and literal facts about personal identity are inherently connected to practical concerns. This account, the 'Person Life View', sees persons as unified loci of practical interaction, and defines the identity of a person in terms of the unity of a characteristic kind of life made up of dynamic interactions among biological, psychological, and social attributes and functions mediated through social and cultural infrastructure., Judgments of personal identity stand at the heart of our daily transactions.

- h***n (1)- Bewertung vom Käufer.Letzter MonatBestätigter KaufI bought it because of the word comprehensive and 2024 (recent), but the content was behind the times fir this subject. My own online research turns out to be more useful. The shopping list listed things that are borderline for eating under this health condition, and didn’t list things that could easily be included. It listed FODMAP as a source, but that is actually for IBS, not CSID. The book arrived in new condition and arrived promptly. So I recommend the seller. Not this book.
