Summary
A noted philosopher ponders the issues of personal identity, consciousness, freedom, and value relating them to the fundamental distinction between individual human experience and objective, external reality
Amazon.com description: Product Description: Thomas Nagel's Mortal Questions explores some fundamental issues concerning the meaning, nature and value of human life. Questions about our attitudes to death, sexual behaviour, social inequality, war and political power are shown to lead to more obviously philosophical problems about personal identity, consciousness, freedom, and value. This original and illuminating book aims at a form of understanding that is both theoretical and personal in its lively engagement with what are literally issues of life and death.
