About This Book
Derek Parfit challenges traditional beliefs about rationality, morality, and personal identity, arguing that common-sense views of the self are fundamentally flawed. The book explores the ethical implications of a reductionist view of persons and the logical paradoxes regarding our responsibilities toward future generations.
