Personal Identity and Buddhist Philosophy

Know about the book -

Personal Identity and Buddhist Philosophy is written by Mark Siderits and published by Lund Humphries Publishers. It's available with International Standard Book Number or ISBN identification 147246611X (ISBN 10) and 9781472466112 (ISBN 13).

Fully revised and updated, and drawing on developments in the author's own thinking, Siderits's second edition explores the conversation between Buddhist and Western Philosophy showing how concepts and tools drawn from one philosophical tradition can help solve problems arising in another. Siderits discusses afresh areas involved in the philosophical investigation of persons, including recent attempts by scholars of Buddhist philosophy to defend the attribution of an emergentist account of personhood to at least some Buddhists, and whether a distinctively Buddhist antirealism can avoid problems that beset other forms of ontological anti-foundationalism.
